Notes
 
• After missing most of the 2020-2021 season, graduate student forward Chuba Ohams has wasted little time displaying that he was back, recording a double-double in each of the first three games.
 
• Ohams started with 13 points and a career-high 15 rebounds in the season-opening win over Columbia and then bettered his career-high with 18 rebounds to go with 17 points at Manhattan. He followed that with 12 points and 12 boards vs. St. Thomas.
 
• Ohams leads the Atlantic 10 and is second in the NCAA in rebounding (15.0 rpg).
 
• Sophomore guard Kyle Rose had a career night vs. St. Thomas, scoring 22 points and pulling down six rebounds, both career-highs.
 
• Rose shot 6-for-12 from behind the arc.
 
• Fordham head coach Kyle Neptune became the first Fordham head men's basketball coach to win in his debut since 1986.
 
• Fordham is 11-3 all-time against teams currently in the MEAC.
