The Mountain Cats come in at 4-2 after a pair of lopsided non-conference wins last week.  Baden Forup posted a double-double of 25 points and 11 rebounds, and Vinnie Cugini added 17 points to pace five Pitt-Johnstown double-figure scorers in a 92-75 win over Point Park last Tuesday in the Sports Center.  Forup followed that up with 18 points and a career-high 14 boards to lead the Mountain Cats to a 92-71 win at Davis & Elkins (WV) on Saturday.  Jay Rose tallied a game-high 20 points as eight Mountain Cats scored seven or more points against the Senators.
 
Penn State-Greater Allegheny, under Head Coach Denzell London, was 2-4 prior to Monday's game at Salem (WV).  The Lions picked-up a 72-70 win over Grove City on Nov. 21 behind 20 points from Biagio Crossley and 18 points and five rebounds from Elijah Hannon.
 
Since first meeting during the 2003-04 season, the Mountain Cats hold an 8-0 advantage in the series.  Last season, the teams met in the Sports Center on Nov. 13 and Pitt-Johnstown came away with a 112-68 victory.  Ryan Smith had 18 points and Forup added 16 points and 10 rebounds to lead six Mountain Cat double-figure scorers. Bryce Philips' 13 points and Hannon's 10 points and game-high 12 rebounds guided the Lions.
