\nHOW IT HAPPENED<\/p>\n


\n\tBU’s first three buckets came on layups from Adler and McLaughlin, but Hogan countered with a pair of three-pointers for a 6-6 deadlock three minutes into the matchup.
\n\tThe Terriers were limited to two field goals over a five-minute span, allowing the Chargers to build a 17-12 lead through five three-pointers.
\n\tJunior In\u00e9s Monteagudo Pardo<\/a> canned a three before the end of the first quarter, then McLaughlin ignited the second with a pair of layups for a 7-0 Terrier run that handed the visitors a 21-19 advantage.
\n\tSchuyler Coles knocked down two free throws, but BU answered with triples from Ericksen and sophomore Hildur Gunnsteinsd\u00f3ttir<\/a> to make it 27-21 with 5:47 left in the frame.
\n\tNeither team scored in the final 2:33 of the first half, but two baskets from Schwertner helped the Terriers build a 31-25 halftime lead.

\n\tAdler opened the fourth quarter with a layup that replenished the double-digit gap at 54-43, but New Haven rattled off an extended 10-3 run for nearly six minutes to cut the lead to 57-53 with 3:18 left in regulation.
\n\tOut of a BU timeout, Adler posted up on the left block and got the turnaround floater to fall, extending the lead to 59-53 with 3:09 on the timer.
\n\tGunnsteinsd\u00f3ttir forced a Hogan turnover with 1:17 to play, allowing for McLaughlin to skate down the right lane for a layup with less than 58 seconds left that made it 62-55.
