What to Know

The Brown Bears will face off against the Delaware Fightin' Blue Hens at 1:30 p.m. ET on Friday at Baha Mar Convention Center. Brown is hoping to put an end to a three-game streak of away losses.

It's hard to win when your three-point shooting is a whole 22.7% worse than the opposition, a fact Brown found out the hard way on Sunday. They took a 81-70 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Trojans.

The loss doesn't tell the whole story though, as several players had good games. One of the most active was Nana Owusu-Anane, who dropped a double-double on 13 points and 11 rebounds. Another player making a difference was Kalu Anya, who scored 13 points along with 9 rebounds.

Meanwhile, Delaware put another one in the bag last Wednesday to keep their perfect season alive. They walked away with a 78-67 victory over the Hornets.

The Bears' victory bumped their season record to 1-4 while the Trojans' loss dropped theirs to 3-1.

Brown is hoping to beat the odds on Friday, as the experts think they're headed for a loss.

This contest is one where the number of possessions is likely to be a big factor: Brown have been smashing the glass this season, having averaged 42.8 rebounds per game. However, it's not like Delaware struggles in that department as they've been averaging 37.2 per game. Given these competing strengths, it'll be interesting to see how their clash plays out.
