Jarrell Brown scored 18 of his 23 points in the second half of the Black Knight's 70-66 win Saturday over visiting Portland.

Army (7-6) led by five at the half, but saw Portland make enough of a run to take the lead briefly in the second half. Then Brown hit a three with 9:17 to play to spark what proved to be a decisive 12-3 Army run.

The Black Knights were up at least two possessions most of the rest of the way, though 6 of 10 free throw shooting in the final minute opened the door enough to cause a little anxiety for the 714 folks in Christl Arena.

Brown, who reached 20 for the ninth time this season and second game in a row, was 5 for 7 from the field, 4 for 5 from three-point range. Not bad for a guy who didn't take part in the two practices leading up to this game due to a sore foot. It was Brown's 10th straight double figures showing.
