PROVIDENCE, R.I.—Predicted to challenge for a spot among the top half of the Ancient Eight after being picked fifth in the preseason media poll and leading the league in scoring offense last year, Brown men’s basketball has so far played a season to forget.
HANOVER, N.H.—If the No. 24 Harvard men’s basketball team is to live up to expectations and earn the first outright Ivy title in school history, the league favorite must be prepared to grind out low-scoring affairs in front of sizeable road crowds throughout the Ancient Eight.
Harvard had made a habit of slow starts in its earlier contests this season. But on Saturday against George Washington, with 9:11 remaining in the opening half, the Crimson held a six-point lead before jumping out on a 14-2 run to enter halftime with a 33-13 lead.
