Ben Defty added 20 points with eight rebounds, and both Chance Gladden (five assists) and Ethan Okwuosa (five rebounds) chipped in 10 points apiece in the win.

Merrimack vs Boston University Prediction

I’ll probably just stay with Boston U here. The Terriers got their proverbial mojo back in their win over Brown this week, notching a nice 58.8 percent shooting from the field with 52 percent (13-of-25) from outside and 89.5 percent (17-of-19) from the free throw line. Boston U had a 27-18 rebounding advantage and 23 team assists along the way as well. The Terriers should match up well here also, and I like them to power out the cover in the end. Merrimack has been below 67 points in each of their three games so far this year, giving up 75 or more points on the other side in each of those outings as well.

Andrew Jett's Pick: Boston U Terriers -4.5
