Sam Singh and Taylor Brown had big rebounding nights for the frontcourt with 9 and 8 rebounds respectively. Will Egolf grabbed 4 offensive rebounds and converted them all into baskets, including two game-winning baskets late. The backcourt played good defense, holding Drake to just 5 three-pointers, but Drake's guards scored easily on drives, led by Josh Young with 19 points and Ryan Wedel with 15 points. Off the bench, Singh's rebounds and defense along with 7 points and 3 rebounds from Dyricus Simms-Edwards were important contributions. Overall, BU played well offensively in the first half but committed too many turnovers in the second half, which led to 10 Drake points, though they

(9) and Taylor Brown (8) and a clutch rebounding night for Will Egolf, who converted all 4 of his offensive boards into baskets. Egolf’s last two were game-winners for the Braves. Backcourt: B Sam Maniscalco had a great game (21 points, 6 assists), and the guards defended the perimeter well (Drake hit just 5 of 26 3-pointers). But Drake’s guards, especially Josh Young (19 points) and Ryan Wedel (15 points) scored too easily off the drive. Bench: B+ Singh’s rebounds and interior defense were big, as was the play of Dyri- cus Simms-Edwards (7 points, 3 rebounds, 2 steals). Overall: B+ BU played much better offensively in the first half with ball movement and patience, rebounded well overall (39-29 edge) and finished the game. Free-throw shooting (10-for-16) was spotty, and second-half turnovers (nine) were too high and led to 10 Drake points. Grades by DAVE REYNOLDS
