Duquesne (14-12 8-5 A-10) looks to win its third straight game when they host first place VCU (20-6, 12-1 A-10) in an important Atlantic 10 showdown. Josh Taylor and Ellis Cannon will have the call on AT&T SportsNet.
 
DUKES AND RAMS         
Duquesne and VCU first met a part of a home-and-home series during the 1989-90 and 1990-91 seasons – with the home team holding court. The series took a 22-year hiatus and resumed in 2012-13 when the Rams joined the Atlantic 10 Conference. The teams have met once in the Atlantic 10 Championship, with the Dukes coming out on top 64-58 in 2013.
