Hartford Dogged by Offensive Struggles
Offense has been hard to come by all year for Hartford, and Saturday was no different in a crucial part of the game. Although the Hawks looked good at times with their ball movement, shots didn’t go at a key juncture of the game en route to a 61-50 loss at Boston University.
Maryland Can’t Get Over the Hump at Boston College

Virginia Tech Hurts From Another Close Loss at Boston College
Virginia Tech has had some rough outings at The Heights in recent years. History repeated itself on Saturday, as the Hokies had plenty of chances before dropping a 58-56 decision to the Eagles.
