Salem (4-4) is playing for the first time since last Wednesday when the Tigers fell at nationally eighth-ranked Daemen College. The loss snapped the Tigers' three-game winning streak.

Jordan Forbes ranks 31st in the nation in scoring with 22.4 points per contest. He's eclipsed the 30-point mark three times in eight games, including a season-high 35 points against California University of Pennsylvania. Forbes is also the Tigers' top rebounder with 6.6 boards per game.

Marko Tutunovic (11.1 points per game) and Fonz Hale (10.0 ppg) are also averaging in double figures for the Tigers. Scott McGann leads Salem with 10 blocked shots.

Point Park (5-4) is coming off a 91-65 victory over Carlow University Saturday.

Tonight's contest marks the second meeting this season between the two teams. Salem defeated Point Park 93-86 November 23 at T. Edward Davis Gymnasium. Tutunovic recorded a double-double with 19 points and 10 rebounds for the Tigers, which saw an 18-point lead sliced to two before sealing the win in the final minute.

The Tigers have away contests Sunday and a week from Thursday before taking time off for Christmas Break.
