ST. BONAVENTURE, N.Y. - Fresh off a win over Fordham, St. Bonaventure's men's basketball team will visit Hawk Hill in Philadelphia on Saturday for the completion of the season series with Saint Joseph's.

With only five games remaining in the regular season, the Bonnies enter the weekend tied with Temple for third place in the Atlantic 10 East Division, one half game behind Rhode Island and two games in back of the first place Hawks. St. Bonaventure looks for revenge for a 75-58 loss to the Hawks on Jan. 8. The Bonnies are 12-12 overall and 6-5 in the A-10.

Saint Joseph's, which has not played since a loss at Dayton last Saturday, is 18-4 overall and 8-3 in the A-10. The Hawks are 11-0 at home. Guards Jameer Nelson (17.1 ppg) and Delonte West (19.3 ppg) lead Saint Joseph's, which boasts the A-10's top defense.

The game will be televised in the Philadelphia metro region only on CN8 TV.
