Army keeps NJIT winless
A 14-0 Army run to start the game was more than NJIT could handle.

After that start, the two teams played fairly even. The Black Knights never led by more than 16; NJIT (0-10) never got closer than 9.

Jarrell Brown led Army (4-4) with 23 points, his fifth straight 20-point game. Brown was 11 for 21 from the field, with one trey, and never got to the free throw line. As a team, Army only shot 8 free throws and made just 4.

The Black Knights were 24 of 57 from the field (42.1 percent), 2 of 9 from three-point range. NJIT was 14 for 41 (34.1 percent) from the field, 6 of 17 from the arc and 10 of 21 from the foul line. The Highlanders turned it over 23 times, 16 in the first half.

The game was played in front of 932 fans in Newark's new Prudential Center, which seats 18,500 for basketball.
