For the next eight minutes, the Big Green managed only two points on a Jason Meyer jumper, while Colgate scored on seven of 11 possessions. The result was a 14-2 Raider run that gave the visitors a 44-32 lead with under eight minutes remaining.

Notes

– Alex Barnett was the lone Dartmouth player in double figures with 12 points, but he needed a gaudy 17 shots to get there.

– Dartmouth shot an identical 8 of 26 (30.8 percent) in both halves.

– Colgate attempted just six three-pointers on the afternoon, hitting just one (16.7 percent).

– The Raiders held the Big Green to just five assists on 16 field goals.

– Colgate did not record a single second-chance point, as Dartmouth rebounded at 36.1 percent offensive while holding the Raiders to 19.2-percent offensive rebounding.

– The Raiders will look to make it two wins in a row when they host Cansius on Wednesday, November 22 at 7:00 pm.
