UDC Men's Basketball Set to Face Off Against Molloy in ECC Quarterfinals

West Babylon, N.Y. – After the completion of regular season play, the bracket for the ECC Men's Basketball Championship is now set.

Tournament action begins on Wednesday, March 2 with the first round taking place at on-campus sites. By earning the tournament's top seed, St. Thomas Aquinas will host the semifinals and final of the tournament at Aquinas Hall on their campus in Sparkill, N.Y. on Saturday, March 5, and Sunday, March 6.

UDC is back in the bracket for the first time since 2019. Like Roberts Wesleyan, the Firebirds are winless in four previous ECC Championship appearances.

Molloy and UDC split their season series, with each taking the victory on their home court. Neither game was close, with Molloy winning by 10 points and UDC taking a decisive 28-point victory.
