Both the New York University men's and women's teams face important University Athletic Association (UAA) road games at the University of Chicago tonight, and you follow their progress by clicking the links above.

The Chicago athletics website will provide live stats for both the women's (7 pm EST/6 pm CST) and men's (9 pm/8 pm) games, as well as audio broadcasts for each contest.

The women's game between NYU (#12 ESPN/USA Today, #15 D3hoops.com) and Chicago (#1 ESPN/USA Today, #4 D3hoops.com) is a potential NCAA Tournament preview. The Violets (15-1, 4-1 UAA) have won four straight in large part due to the play of sophomore forward Jessica McEntee (13.3 ppg, 11.6 rpg), the reigning two-time PrestoSports/Metropolitan Basketball Writers' Association Player of the Week and three-time UAA Co-Athlete of the Week.

Meanwhile, the Maroons (16-0, 5-0 UAA) currently sit atop the league standings and are coming off a 67-60 victory over the University of Rochester on Sunday.

On the men's side, NYU (14-2, 3-2 UAA) is ranked #24 in the D3hoops.com Poll. Senior center Jason Boone (12.9 ppg, 8.8 rpg, 2.0 bpg, 68.5 FG%) was named to the D3hoops.com Team of the Week this week, but watch for junior point guard Charlie Parker (5.8, 4.4 apg), who is averaging 10.3 points and 6.7 assists over his last three games.

Chicago (13-3, 4-1 UAA) is led by senior guard Jesse Meyer, who also earned a spot on the D3hoops.com Team of the Week after averaging 20.0 points and shooting 76.5% from the floor (71.4 3FG%) in victories over Carnegie Mellon University and Rochester last weekend.
