“It’s a make-miss game—that’s all there is to tell you,” BC head coach Earl Grant said. “We’ll watch the film, figure out what we see and try to improve upon it.”
FINAL: BC loses 60-59 after a layup from Central Connecticut's Darin Smith Jr. with three seconds to go. Story and quotes to come.
Eagles lead by one, 59-58, with 13.4 seconds to go. It's CC's ball after this timeout.
He follows that moving screen call up with a crucial block on the other end.
Terribly timed foul from Jayden Hastings to turn the ball over with 1:15 to play.

Payne just got a cross-court pass to the corner and finished at the rim with two defenders on him, then cashed his free throw. 59–58 BC
BC's entire offense right now is swing-swing-Hand three. And it's not working. Yes, he's the star player. But running some sort of set (maybe to the posts...) might be more effective when Hand is 1-11 from deep tonight.
Central Connecticut just took a 55-54 lead with a lob and a dunk.
Two straight jumpers makes it a one-point game. BC leads 52-51
A loss tonight would be pretty catastrophic for BC.
CC just hit a corner three to cut BC's lead to 49–44 and Earl Grant called a timeout.
Fred Payne starts off the half with a quick five points to give the Eagles a 35–26 lead.

HALF: BC leads CC 30-26 The Eagles scored 10 points in the first 3:14 of the first half, but just 20 in the remaining 16:46. They are 4-18 from three and shooting 32.4 percent from the floor.
Luka Toews is getting his first minutes of the season right now. The Eagles have had trouble scoring for the past five minutes or so, and their lead has been cut to 14-10.
BC just let up quick eight points including two threes, and its lead has been cut to two.
A block from Chase forte on one side leads to another Hastings dunk on the other end, and the Eagles are up 8–0.
