Dartmouth @ Boston College Game Overview

The Eagles (6-1) came away with a championship at the Cayman Islands Classic, doing so thanks to a 63-61 victory over Boise State on Tuesday night. Joshua Beadle knocked down a go-ahead 3-pointer with two seconds remaining to make sure that Boston College went home with some hardware.

Chad Venning collected 16 points and seven rebounds while Beadle finished with 13 points for the Eagles, who learned a lot about themselves during their time in the Cayman Islands.

"We grew a bit here over the last three or four days," Boston College coach Earl Grant said. "We wanted to focus on growth. Our communication has been an area that we had to get better with because you can have five guys out there with four doing the right thing, but if one of them does something wrong, then it's a mistake.

"We've made mistakes, so we focused on our growth and I thought we made steps as it pertains to that growth in our communication. Now we just have to continue to build on it."

The Big Green (2-3) have been off since Nov. 19, when they fell 75-62 to Marist for their third loss in a row. Jayden Williams came off the bench to supply 14 points for Dartmouth, and Brandon Mitchell-Day chipped in 11 to go along with seven boards.

Although the Big Green have been struggling, Dartmouth coach David McLaughlin is hoping that his team will be hardened by the start of Ivy League action.

"We have put together a very competitive non-conference schedule that will allow us to face quality opponents both in and out of region," McLaughlin said ahead of the season. "It is important for us to have quality tests before heading into conference play.

"The Ivy League has been widely considered one of the top 10-12 leagues nationally over the past few years and this year is certainly no different."

Cade Haskins has been the Big Green's leading scorer at 14.6 points per game, while Donald Hand Jr. (15.3 points per contest) has been leading the way for the Eagles.
