RIVERDALE, N.Y. –\u00a0<\/p>\n

In the midst of winning five of their first seven games in the month of January, the Jaspers look to keep the good times rolling on Saturday against Quinnpiac. Leading Manhattan in the points category has been Senior guard Brianna Davis<\/a>, averaging 12.8 points a night, including a Division I high of 23 points and 11 rebounds last time out against Rider. On the defensive end, Graduate forwards Colette Mulderig<\/a> and Agar Farr\u00e9s Garcia have helped anchor that end of the floor, with the former’s 1.7 average on blocks putting her in second place across the MAAC, while the latter’s 7.3 rebounds have her in fifth. The Green and White will look to stay above .500 in conference play before hitting the road again to take on Sacred Heart from the William H. Pitt Athletic and Convocation Center on Thursday.<\/p>\n
