Battle of Brooklyn (college rivalry)
The Battle of Brooklyn rivalry refers to the rivalry between the Long Island University Blackbirds and St. Francis College Terriers. The Battle of Brooklyn is a fierce rivalry, particularly in men's college basketball, between the LIU Brooklyn Blackbirds and St. Francis Brooklyn Terriers athletic teams. The intensity of the rivalry is augmented by the proximity of the two universities, located only one mile apart in Downtown Brooklyn. The name of the rivalry is in reference to the first major battle of the American Revolutionary War, the Battle of Brooklyn.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://espn.go.com/new-york/story/_/id/7566640/battle-brooklyn-liu-st-francis-meet-again-saturday )〕
==Men's basketball==
The Battle of Brooklyn started as an annual basketball game played between the basketball programs of Long Island University Brooklyn and St. Francis College. The rivalry between the Terriers and the Blackbirds dates back to the 1928 season, when they first played one another, but the tradition began in the 1975–76 season predating when both teams joined the Northeast Conference in the 1981-82 season. At the conclusion of each game an MVP is announced and the winning team receives the Lai-Lynch Trophy, which honors William Lai and Daniel Lynch, the former Athletic Directors of Long Island and St. Francis, respectively. 〔
Both the St. Francis Brooklyn Terriers and the LIU Brooklyn Blackbirds compete in the Division I Northeast Conference. Although the two schools regularly play twice each regular season, only one of the games, usually the last, is officially designated as a ''Battle of Brooklyn'' game. The host of the designated ''Battle of Brooklyn'' alternates annually and is held at campus sites. The Blackbirds host their games at the Steinberg Wellness Center and the Barclays Center and the Terriers host their home contests at the Generoso Pope Athletic Complex. The 39th installment of the ''Battle of Brooklyn'' was held at the Barclays Center, the largest venue so far for the annual contest, with LIU Brooklyn as the hosts.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.barclayscenter.com/events/detail/liu-vs-st-francis )〕 The Blackbirds lead the overall series 45–29 and the Battle of Brooklyn series 23–17.
