The Purple Eagles opened their 2013-14 schedule with an 82-44 victory over Roberts Wesleyan on Oct. 25.
Four Purple Eagles scored in double figures, led by senior Marvin Jordan's game-high 21 points on 8-for-16 shooting from the field. Antoine Mason added 18 points, while newcomers Cameron Fowler and Wesley Myers scored 11 and 10 points, respectively. Defensively, Niagara forced 20 turnovers and held the Redhawks, a Division II school based in Rochester, N.Y., to 32 percent shooting and 1-for-15 from behind the arc.
Several Purple Eagles made their debut wearing the Purple and White and a few had efficient performances. Fowler led the game in assists with five and had six rebounds in a game-high 35 minutes. Rayvon Harris, who redshirted last season after transferring from Rhode Island, had nine points and a team-high eight rebounds. Myers finished with three assists and five boards.
