Men's basketball set to take on Bryant, Quinnipiac

PROVIDENCE, R.I. – The Brown men's basketball team will take on Bryant this Friday, Nov. 26 at 2 p.m. before traveling to Quinnipiac for a 4 p.m. matchup this Sunday, Nov. 28.

The Bears return home for their first game at the Pizzitola Sports Center since before the Paradise Jam tournament. Brown went 1-2 while in St. Thomas with losses to Creighton and Colorado and win over Bradley.

Bryant put a stop to its three-game losing skid with a 78-62 win over Holy Cross last Sunday, while Quinnipiac lost to New Hampshire last time out after winning three straight.

The game against Bryant will be broadcast live on NESN and ESPN+.

Quinnipiac's three victories this season have come against Western New England, Holy Cross, and Central Connecticut, while its losses have been at the hands of Maryland and New Hampshire.
In the Bobcats' last game out against UNH, a 14-point halftime deficit was too much to overcome as they would eventually fall 84-69.
