The Hawks host Drury at 3 p.m. Saturday.
The Rockhurst men's basketball team are back home for the first time since Jan. 2. The Hawks host Drury at 3 p.m. Saturday at Mason-Halpin Field House. Spectators and game personnel will be required to wear a properly fitting mask throughout their duration of time on campus in an effort to protect student-athletes, staff and the overall campus community.

Coach Drew Diener's crew will be playing their first game since Jan. 4 as the Hawks have had their last three contests canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Senior forward Nick Volz ranks ninth in scoring (15.1 pg), fifth in rebounding (7.5 pg) and seventh in assists (3.5 pg) in the GLVC. Sophomore guard Jake Auer is 10th in scoring (15.0 pg) and second in 3-point field goals made (3.4 pg). Drury (4-8, 1-3 GLVC) is coming off a 68-58 loss at William Jewell Thursday night.

Junior guard Malik Davis leads the Panthers with a 14.5 scoring average. Senior guard Victor Nwagbarachoa is averaging 11.5 points and 4.0 rebounds per game. Rockhurst fell at Drury 91-62 on Dec. 4 in Springfield. The Panthers have won the last six meetings and hold a 77-45 lead in the all-time series.
