In a game that appeared closer in the final score than it actually was, the Black Bears defeated the Wildcats 64-50 at Alfond Arena.

The Black Bears improve to 13-7 and 7-1, and their win streak increases to six games, while the Wildcats drop to 8-12 and 2-6 in AEC play.

“I thought it was a good effort defensively,” Black Bear head coach Ted Woodward said. “New Hampshire plays hard, we knew this was going to be a tough battle.”

Wildcats blow out UMBC at home

Tyrone Conley scored 22 points and Brian Benson recorded his first career double-double as UNH routed UMBC, 80-60, in the Wildcats' highest scoring output of the year on Sunday afternoon.

Key to UNH's offensive success was ball movement, as the team recorded a season-high 17 assists on 26 field goals. The stellar passing led to the Wildcats hitting 51 percent of their shots, including 14-27 from behind the arc. On defense, UNH held the Retrievers to just 36.7 percent shooting from the field.

So what went right for the Wildcats on Sunday?

“Everything,” UNH head coach Bill Herrion said with a laugh. “That's as complete a game at both ends of the floor that we've had here in years.”
