Brown and Providence, who play within walking distance of one another, have been competing on the basketball court for over 90 years. The Friars have dominated of late, and haven't lost to the Bears since 2006. But that all changed tonight. Senior Tucker Halpern is the only real 3-point threat the Bears have, and tonight […]

1. 7-foot sophomore Alex Kirk played a pivotal role on the interior and forced Cincinnati to alter a number of close shots that otherwise would have been lay-ins. He finished with 3 official blocks. After failing to record a single block in his first four games this year, he's now averaged 1.9 per game over […]

1. Junior R.J. Marhurin scored in double figure points for the fourth straight game, but more importantly he established a career high with four offensive rebounds. On those four possessions which he extended, the Sycamores went on to score 5 points. In close games, it's the little things. 2. The Sycamores won despite only making […]

1. Anthony Bennett, UNLV (last week: 1 – 5th straight week) The Freshman of the Year race is becoming decidedly lopsided.

I'm not sure how many inbounds passes have taken place in the history of college basketball, but I'm pretty sure this one is the worst.  

1. After Monday's disappointing offensive showing against ULM, senior Michael Snaer (who sat out due to a disciplinary issue) and junior Okaro White had a lengthy and private heart-to-heart. Following that conversation both players have stated that it's time for them to be more aggressive. The young guys are playing like spectators far too often, […]

1. Michael Carter-Williams made just 3-17  (17.6%) shots. He missed all five of his 3s, and was just 7-15 (46.6%) from the line. It was a career high in both shot and free throw attempts. 2. MCW wasn't the only one cold from the arc. Syracuse made only 2-12 (16.7%) for the game. It was […]

1. Junior Sebastian Koch had a solid game with 14 points and 9 rebounds. He made 4-5 3s and his hot shooting helped keep Elon in the game. This one was tied with under four minutes to go in the first half before Duke began opening its lead. 2. Duke forced 17 turnovers in 69 […]
