Buckley gets a chance to avenge its only loss of the season tonight against Yeshiva.

The Griffins (14-1, 5-0 in Liberty League play) lost to Yeshiva, 73-68, at the Montclair Prep tournament, but have won 10 consecutive games since then.

“Dec. 7 was definitely a turning point for us,” Buckley Coach Dan Haasch said. “We’re a good team and we’ve got to play that way.”
