Win vs. Babson

The Bears had a great win against Babson on Saturday, despite some bumps in the road that pushed tip-off back to 6:15. We had our fullest roster of the season, welcoming some newcomers as well as the veterans. The Bears came out hot, hitting 5 three-pointers in the first 5 minutes, and did not cool down through the first half. A strong Babson team upped the physicality in the second half and beat the Bears down low, but good free throw shooting down the stretch helped Brown pull out the W by 3, 81-78.

Ivy League Tournament

Fall 2011

The Brown club basketball team is back in action this fall.
We play our first games November 5-6 at Harvard in the Ivy League tournament. This is the first time all 6 Ivy League teams will be together for an event.
We will then travel to Northeastern on November 12 for a 1 PM tip-off.
More games are currently being scheduled for late November and early December.

The team is looking really strong, and we will definitely compete with the best club teams in the nation this year.

Thanks

Thanks to everyone involved for a great first season. We have a lot to build on, and the view is very optimistic for the future.

Upcoming Game Versus Dartmouth

This Saturday (April 9), come watch the Brown club basketball team take on Dartmouth in the final game of its inaugural season. Tip-off is at 5:30 pm in the OMAC.

Recap

It's been a while since I've posted, but I wanted to recap the past few weeks.

We played Babson at home on February 6th. We were leading big in the first half, but the Babson team fought back and made the second half very back-and-forth. We lost a heartbreaker in the end by 4 points.

We also got really awesome uniforms (tops, shorts, shoes) and I want to thank the guys in the club sports department for helping us out a lot with that.

Hopefully we will get a game in this weekend, and we are looking forward to playing Dartmouth and maybe others after spring break.
