        THROGGS NECK, N.Y. (Feb. 1, 2014) – The Maritime men's basketball team will play host to Skyline Conference opponent NYU-Poly on Saturday afternoon in the final meeting ever between the two teams. Game time is 1 p.m. at the Riesenberg Hall Gymnasium.
 
End Of A Great Rivalry
        On Saturday, Maritime and NYU-Poly will be taking the court against each other for the 58th and final time. The Jays are the second most played opponent for the Privateers behind Yeshiva. Poly will no longer sponsor an athletic program after the 2013-14 academic year, thus ending a great New York City basketball rivalry.
