FAIRFIELD, Conn. – The final homestand in the history of Alumni Hall will begin on Thursday night when the Fairfield University Women's Basketball team hosts Siena at 7pm. The building, which hosted it's first season in 1959, has been home to the women's basketball program in nearly every season since their 1981-82 Division I debut. The Stags own an all-time record of 285-105 at Alumni Hall with a 96-43 clip under Joe Frager.
 
The Stags will. Be looking to find that Alumni Hall magic, entering with three-straight losses two of those coming on the road. Fairfield is coming off a season low 38 points at Manhattan, a game where they tallied just 13 second half points on 4-for-25 shooting. Fairfield struggled from behind the arc, making just one of their 19 3-point attempts.
 
Lou Lopez-Senechal led the Stags with 13 points, she has now recorded double figures in 17 of Fairfield's 18 MAAC contests. She enters sixth in the MAAC in scoring (15.3), second in free throw percentage (.875), and seventh in 3-goal percentage (.374).
 
A key to Fairfield's game against Siena will be the rebounding, and the Stags have been led by Andrea Hernangomez in that department. She is averaging 9.5 rebounds in her last four outings, nearly three rebounds more than the next closest Stag.
 
After starting conference play with a 1-6 record, Siena has improved while holding a 7-4 MAAC mark since. They have won two of their last three contests with their most recent coming against Iona on Senior Day. Defense has been one of the keys to the turnaround as they held their last two opponents to under 50 points.
 
Sabrina Piper leads the team in points at 13.6, joined in double figures with Rayshel Brown at exactly 10.0 points per game. Piper, Amari Anthony, and Margo Peterson have all hit 30 or more 3-pointers this season with Peterson connecting on a .395 clip.
 
The Stags will wrap up the 2019-20 regular season and play the final game ever at Alumni Hall on Saturday when they take on Niagara at 2pm. The program will also honor the two member senior class of Sam Kramer and Nicole Bus to celebrate their four years of dedication to the Stags on their Senior Day.
