Brown plays hero for Army
The Black Knights of the Hudson rang out the old in dramatic fashion, beating Sacred Heart 59-58 on a Jarrell Brown three-pointer with 2 seconds left on the clock.

Brown's big shot capped a big night for the junior guard, who went 10 for 18 from the field, including 4 treys (on 6 tries) for 24 points, tying his season high.

Matt Bell, back from whatever the injury was that sidelined him at Michigan, added 15, scoring 9 from the foul line (on 11 tries), making up for an off night from the field (3 for 10, 0 for 2 on threes).

Point guard Marcus Nelson had 5 assists and 3 steals, but what folks will remember about the 5-10 freshman's play in this one will be his 12 rebounds. That just happens to be the margin (39-27) Army outrebounded Sacred Heart by.

While Bell made freee throws for Army, the foul line was Sacred Heart's undoing. The Pioneers went to the line 25 times, 8 more than Army (17), but the Pioneers missed 12 of those, leaving them even at the line with the Black Knights, who made 13 of their 17 free throws.
