Last Time Out
The Knights kicked off their 2014-15 campaign with a stunning upset of last year's A-10 Conference champions Saint Joseph's at Hagan Arena in Philadelphia. FDU's lone senior Mustafaa Jones (Philadelphia, Pa./Neumann-Goretti) drained a contested three with just three ticks left in regulation to seal a 58-57 victory. It was the program's first win against an A-10 opponent since a 56-53 win at Rutgers.
