THE SERIES
Bryant and Framingham State are meeting for the first time in program history.

DOME DAWGS
Bryant notched a monumental win on Saturday night in Syracuse, defeating the Orange 73-72. The victory was Bryant's second-ever against a member of the ACC, coming nearly 10 years to the day after the first (Nov. 25, 2012 at Boston College). Bryant has now won two games inside the Dome, as the men's lacrosse team shocked Syracuse in the 2014 NCAA First Round.  

GROSS-BULLOCK MAKING PLAYS
Sherif Gross-Bullock was locked in on Saturday at Syracuse, drawing four offensive charges and hitting shots at the first half and second half buzzers. Gross-Bullock drilled a 37-footer to beat the first-half horn and his runner fell home with 0.8 seconds left to give the Bulldogs a 73-72 lead.

WALKER LOCKED IN
Antwan Walker has been locked in the last four games, averaging 15.5 ppg and 8.5 rpg for the Bulldogs. He scored a team-high 18 points and had 11 rebounds at Syracuse on Saturday, marking his second-straight double-double.
