Bowman scored 11 in the second half and finished the game with 19 points, eight assists and six rebounds. Chatman also had 11 in the half and 17 for the game.

The Eagles ran off a 28-4 run to take control of the game, going on a pair of 11-0 spurts.

Boston College, which was 2-for-10 from 3-point range in the first half, made nine of its 13 shots from behind the arc in the second.

Teddy Hawkins overcame foul trouble and six turnovers to score 16 points and grab 11 rebounds for BC. Freshman Steffon Mitchell came off the bench with a season-high 11 boards.

Sean O'Brien led six Raiders in double figures with 16 points, Jordan Swopshire had 13, Jack Ferguson 12 and Will Rayman, Dana Batt and Jordan Burns 11 apiece. Batt had 12 rebounds and Rayman seven, while Burns was guilty of seven turnovers.

The Raiders host Columbia Friday, while BC has a big local rivalry game at Providence Saturday night, the start of three straight road games.
