Men's Basketball Visits Southern NH Wednesday
UPDATE
Bryant (11-5, 9-4 NE-10) hits the road for a pair of games
starting this Wednesday evening when the Bulldogs travel to
Southern NH University to battle the Penmen in a Northeast-10
Conference game in Manchester, NH. Bryant enters the game
winners of four straight thanks to Saturday's 70-55 win over
Stonehill College. Chris Burns was coming off a 31-point and
eight 3-point performance Thursday night in a win over Pace and
matched those numbers exactly once again in leading Bryant past the
Skyhawks. For his efforts, Burns was named the Northeast-10
Conference Player of the Week. This will be the second of two
meetings this year between Bryant and Southern NH with the Bulldogs
cruising to a 76-46 win over SNHU back on Dec. 9 at the Chace
Athletic Center. Jon Ezeokoli had 14 points to lead Bryant to the
win.
