SCOUTING BROWN
- Brown will begin its second season of play under head coach Monique LeBlanc and will be looking to build off a six-win campaign a season ago.
- The Bears return their top-six scorers from last season, including Isabella Mauricio (14.4 ppg) and Kyla Jones (12.9 ppg) who both averaged double-figures last season.
- Mya Murray is back to anchor the Brown defense after finishing last season with a team-high 5.9 rebounds and 32 blocks to go along with six points per game.
- The Bears lineup features eight newcomers that will look to make an impact on what is still a young roster under LeBlanc.
- Jones will look to remain active on the defensive end of the court having led the Ivy League in steals last season with 65.
- Mauricio was a threat from deep last year, hitting a Brown freshman record 70 threes last season. That number was third all-time in Brown program history.
- Fairfield begins the season after a 25-7 record last year that included a 19-1 record in conference play.
- The Stags will be led by first-time head coach Carly Thibault-DuDonis, who takes over the reigns after spending the last four years at the University of Minnesota.
- Fairfield will have to replace last year's leading scorer Lou Lopez-Senechal, who averaged 19.5 points per game for the Stags. Callie Cavanaugh returns after averaging 9.6 points per game and Andrea Hernangomez is back for a fifth season after averaging 8.0 points and 8.1 rebounds a season ago.
- Brown lost to Fairfield 76-52 last season in the first game of the year. Jones led Brown with 15 points and Charlotte Jewell finished with 11.
- The Bears were down by just four at halftime but a 24-9 third quarter swung things in Fairfield's favor.
- Cavanaugh finished with 20 points to lead all scorers and Hernangomez had 15.
