Notes: Transfer from Queens...sat out 2013-14 season due to NCAA transfer rules TRENDING - Chattanooga’s eight-games-in-18-days stretch is about to come to a hectic end. The Mocs play four times over a seven-day period with the Battle 4 Atlantis here before the short jaunt to Kennesaw State on Saturday. It ends next Tuesday when Georgia visits McKenzie Arena on Tuesday, December 2. - This is the first meeting with Robert Morris. The Mocs are 5-0 all-time against Northeast Conference schools: 2-0, LIU Brooklyn; 1-0, Mount St. Mary’s; 1-0, Sacred Heart; 1-0, St. Francis (PA). - The last NEC school to visit the Roundhouse was LIU in the 2009 Dr Pepper Classic. Chattanooga topped the Blackbirds 76-59 in the first round en route to the title. - After opening the season at home, the Mocs have played three straight on the road. They were 12-2 in McKenzie Arena last season and 13-2 under Will Wade at home. - The Battle 4 Atlantis event this week affords Chattanooga the opportunity to host what is a strong mid-major field. Robert Morris has won two straight NEC titles and boasts NIT wins the last two seasons over Kentucky (2013) and St. John’s (2014). Coastal Carolina is the reigning Big South champ and ULM is coming off a strong performance at then-No. 8 Florida falling 61-56 in overtime. 1
