DePaul Blue Demons (8-14) 77 #11 Providence College Friars (18-5) 70 Well, I guess we can just call this one the Murphy's Law game (everything that can go wrong, will go wrong). Actually, over the past 2 years, there have been three such games that the Friars have found themselves in that would qualify for this. Last year, …

#10 Providence College Friars (18-4) 73 Georgetown Hoyas (13-9) 69 I just want it in the records that the Providence Friars Men's Basketball Team is 1-0 in game I have attended this year. Great, just so we have that straight and on the record. The two-headed monster of Kris Dunn and Ben Bentil (better known as "Ben …

#16 Providence College Friars (17-3) 82 #4 Villanova Wildcats (17-3) 76 OT We had to wait an extra day to see the game between the fourth ranked Villanova Wildcats and the sixteenth ranked Providence Friars because of Snow Storm Jonas, but we were rewarded heavily for our patience. The game took an overtime period to be decided but gave us …
#12 Providence College Friars (15-3) 72 Seton Hall Pirates (13-4) 81 That makes three games in a row that the PC Friars have played extremely poor basketball. Slow starts have been a pretty consistent thing this entire year, and something that the Friars need to rectify, but the last three games have been a constant struggle, especially on the …

Marquette Golden Eagles (11-4) 65 #8 Providence College Friars (14-2) 64 First off, let me just say that I'm going to take full blame for this loss. Instead of watching the Friars game at home on TV, I went to the UConn/Temple game instead. I was so flustered by not being able to watch the Friars that I actually …

It came from an unexpected place in PC Freshman Drew Edwards. Edwards came into the game …
#15 Providence College Friars 66 (9-1) Boston College Eagles 51 (3-6) No Ryan Fazekas (possibly mono). Fifteen minutes of Kris Dunn (illness). One half of Ben Bentil (hurt ankle). No problem.
