DOUBLE-DOUBLE
Fresh off a 20-point, 11-rebound performance in the season opener at Colgate (Nov. 6), Nana Owusu-Anane returns home, where the Canadian averages 10.7 points and 7.0 rebounds for his career. Last season, Owusu-Anane averaged 13.2 points, 8.6 rebounds and 1.0 block on College Hill.

MARYLAND v. MARYLAND
Saturday features Kino Lilly Jr. – a Maryland native – and the Bears taking on Loyola University Maryland. Last season, Lilly Jr. scored 12 points on 5-of-8 shooting at the Greyhounds, but fouled out of the game. In fact, all five starters for the Bears reached double figures, including Owusu-Anane's 11 points, nine rebounds and five assists, and Kalu Anya's 10 points and five rebounds.

PERFECTION FROM THE FIELD
Kalu Anya went 5-of-5 for the first time in his Brown career on Monday at Colgate (Nov. 6). It was the second time Anya was perfect from the field. The sophomore shot 4-of-4 at Loyola (Md.) last season.

KINO FROM DEEP
In Monday's contest, Lilly Jr. connected on four triples in the first half, the most since Jan. 2 versus Penn. He finished with five three-pointers for the ninth time in his two-plus years on College Hill.

ALL-TIME SERIES
Brown and Loyola met for the first time last year. It is the second consecutive Patriot League foe for the Bears.
