Notes
– Gonzalez led the way for Quinnipiac with 18 points.
– The game was Brown’s first without leading scorer Keenan Jeppesen, who left the program earlier in the week. The news was announced on the radio broadcast.
– Chris Skrelja and Damon Huffman both made their returns from injuries. Skrelja enjoyed an impressive season debut, scoring 14 points and grabbing five rebounds in 19 minutes. Huffman finished the evening with nine points, three rebounds, and three assists in 24 minutes in his first game back after suffering a knee injury in the season opener at Michigan State on November 8.
– Three Bobcats fouled out, and three more finished with four personal fouls. Sam Manhanga was the only Bear to be disqualified, fouling out in just 12 minutes. 60 total fouls were called on the night, resulting in a combined 88 free throws.
– Because of Brown’s 60 free throws and 22 turnovers, the Bears attempted only 34 field goals — nearly half of Quinnipiac’s total of 67.
– The Bears’ 41 second-half points were more than they scored in 40 minutes at Michigan State and Northwestern.
– Having already beaten Providence, Brown will look to make it a sweep of its in-state rivals when it travels to Kingston to face Rhode Island on Tuesday, December 5 at 7:00 pm ET.
