ABOUT BROWN

Brown will be looking for its first win of the season as the Bears head to Harvard to begin the second half of the Ivy League season. Brown is coming off a 61-55 loss to Cornell last Saturday (Jan. 29).
Isabella Mauricio led the Bears with a career-high 24 points, hitting six threes. With her career-game, Mauricio was named Ivy League Rookie of the Week. She is the second Bear to win the honor after Amanda Latkany took home the award in November.
Mauricio has now scored at least 20 points in four games this season and in three of her last five games.
Kyla Jones scored 13 points as the second-leading scorer for Brown against the Big Red. Jones scored in double-figures for the fourth time in her last five games and for the third-straight game. She has shot 50% or better from the field in each of her last three games.
The loss to Cornell was the first game of the season Brown has lost when leading with five minutes left in the game. The Bears had been 5-0 when holding the lead at the 5-minute mark this year.
Brown did not have a blocked shot in the game, just the second time this season the Bears did not block a shot. The first game without a blocked shot was the first meeting against Harvard this season.
Brown's nine threes are the most in a game since the Bears hit nine against Fisher College on Dec. 11.
The Bears eight steals against Cornell gives Brown at least eight steals in each of its last five games.
Against the Big Red, Brown shot the second-best percentage from the floor, and from three-point range, in the Ivy League season.
In the first meeting against Harvard, Brown dressed just eight players in a 58-89 loss to the Crimson. Harvard outscored the Bears 34-15 in the first quarter but Brown was outscored by just two points over the next two quarters. Mauricio finished with a team-high 22 points and five assists, going 8-for-8 from the free throw line. Ashley Ducharme had a season-high 11 points to finish as the second-leading scorer for the Bears.
The first game against Dartmouth this season was postponed due to COVID-19 protocols in the Big Green program. Brown will face off for the first time against Dartmouth before playing the rescheduled game at home against Dartmouth on Tuesday, Feb. 8.
