Notes
– Chris Skrelja came off the bench to lead Brown in scoring with 12 points, adding seven rebounds. McAndrew was the only other Bear in double figures scoring-wise with 10 points.
– Neither team shot the three-pointer well, with Brown just 5 of 15 (33.3 percent) from beyond the arc and UC Davis even worse at 3 of 19 (15.8 percent).
– Turnovers were major story, as Brown’s 19 turnovers limited the Bears to just 37 field goal attempts, while UC Davis committed only 10 turnovers. The Aggies owned a 18-7 edge in points off turnovers.
– The Bears’ leading scorer, Damon Huffman, did not attempt a shot in the first half and finished with just six points in 31 minutes.
– Brown was fortunate to be down just three at halftime after shooting just 5 of 17 (29.4 percent) and committing 10 turnovers in the first 20 minutes.
– Marcus Becker had one of his more forgettable games, going 1-for-4 from the floor, committing five turnovers against three assists, and missing all three free throw attempts.
– The Bears’ cross-country roadtrip takes them back to the Lone Star State for a date with Matt Doherty’s SMU squad (9-3) on Saturday, January 6 at 8:00 pm ET.
