The Eagles come into December ranked #9, 4 spots behind #5 NC State, who they get the pleasure of playing against, at NC State on December 21st, in their first conference game.
"The NC State game is gonna be the biggest test of the year for us. They have some great players in Bassirou Bain (15 PPG), Laurie Wright, and Bradley Pritchard. We need to play tough, and play well the entire game in order to pull out a win against them." said Mason Jr.

Dana Stevenson has confirmed that he has signed with Rhode Island, with BC as a huge player in his recruiting.
"It's a little disappointing, but we're most likely going to return most if not all of the rotation next year, so I understand why he chose not to come." commented Coach Mason Jr.

The Eagles also announce that they'll be playing in the Casual Apparel Holiday Festival, at Carnesecca Arena in Queens, New York. Mason Jr, originally from there, is very happy to come home, and even has a "christmas present" for his team.
"These boys are really happy about it, especially since most of their families are on the Northeast, so they'll be able to make the trip to Queens. I also have a little surprise for them, that they'll enjoy, since they're all about their swag." said Coach, with a smile on his face.
When asked about the possibility of playing #4 Marquette, he quickly changed his face, and said "They're a tough team, but we're looking forward to the challenge. We have to focus on beating Delaware first, then shift it to them."
