ALBANY, N.Y.<\/strong> \u2013 University at Albany men\u2019s basketball (10-9, 4-2 AE) heads to Durham, N.H., this weekend to face New Hampshire (3-15, 1-4 AE) on Thursday at 7 p.m.<\/span><\/p>\n

Peter Hooley<\/a> scored a game-high 17 points to lead the Great Danes over Binghamton 66-60 on Monday night. UAlbany downed the Bearcats for the seventh consecutive time.<\/span><\/p>\n

Dallas Ennema<\/a> played a career-high 21 minutes and recorded career highs in points (12) and rebounds (7). He also dished out two assists.<\/span><\/p>\n

Gary Johnson<\/a> recorded his third consecutive game with 10 points or more against Binghamton. The senior had 10 to go with three rebounds and two assists.

LAST WE MET<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The last time the Great Danes traveled to Lundholm Gym, Sam Rowley<\/a> emerged with a double-double (10&10) in addition to two steals and a perfect 4-for-4 clip from the charity stripe.

In the all-time series, Luke Devlin<\/a> recorded a UAlbany single-game high 14 rebounds against New Hampshire on Feb. 2, 2011. Devlin helped the Great Danes bring down an all-time team game-high 56 rebounds in conference play. Rowley\u2019s 10 rebounds last season ranks fifth in all-time series single-game rebounds.<\/span><\/p>\n
