Towson University prepares for MSU Bears

Towson, Maryland - With pre-season camp behind them, the Tigers are preparing to open the 2011 season under the lights against cross-town rival Morgan State.

The Bears are members of the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference and will travel less than five miles down the road to Tigertown Saturday night. Of the 22 times that Morgan and Towson have met, the Tigers have won 16 of those games. Despite the series history that is in the Tigers’ favor, Head Coach Rob Ambrose said that his team is not looking past the Bears.



“In the history of the Morgan game, you can pretty much throw the records away,” Ambrose said. “It doesn’t matter what the records were before, what the records were last year, or even what happened in the last game. It’s always a dogfight. It’s always something personal. We expect a hell of a game from them, and they should expect the same from us.”

In the offseason, Morgan State Head Coach Donald Hill-Eley installed a few wrinkles to the Bears’s offense in an effort to snap Towson’s six-game home-opener winning streak.
