Countdown to the Showdown


The MCC men's and women's basketball teams will host Genesee CC this Saturday on Monagan Court in one of the most anticipated doubleheaders of the season.  The two colleges are Western New York Athletic Conference and Region III rivals and have certainly played their share of exciting contests over the years.

To gear up for the games, the Sports Information office is providing some facts and figures about the rivalry leading up to Saturday's showdown.

DID YOU KNOW ... The MCC men's team had a tremendous stretch of games against Genesee early in the rivalry.  From 1978-1980, the Tribunes went 4-0 against the Cougars and scored over 100 points in each game.  The average margin of victory in those contests was 43 points.

Be sure to come out Saturday afternoon and support the Tribunes.  The women's game starts at 1 p.m., followed by the men at 3 p.m.
