N. CHARLESTON, S.C.  – The No. 6 Northeastern men's basketball team's season came to an end in the Quarterfinal Round of the CAA Tournament Saturday night against No. 3 Towson at the North Charleston Coliseum as the Huskies fell 82-54.
 
Northeastern could not get their offense going, though they were able to put together a 12-1 run over a four-minute span in the second half that brought them within 12 of the Tigers with 6:42 to go. A 3-point attempt on the next possession by Jimmy Marshall rattled halfway in and then bounced out on a shot that could have made it a double-digit game. On the ensuing possession Towson went down and hit a three, taking a 15-point lead and the ultimate victory.
 
T.J. Williams led the Huskies with 15 points, 12 of which came in the first half. He was 9-of-11 from the free throw line and with those went over the 200-free throw mark for the season finishing the year with 202.
 
For his career, the 2017 CAA Player of the Year finished 15^th on the career scoring chart with 1,377 points, while his 642 points this season are the sixth most in a single season by any Husky and the most since J.J. Barea had 665 in the 2004-05 season. He finished the year with 158 assists, eighth most in a single season and had 403 for his career, sixth most in Northeastern history. His 202 free throws are the most in a single season and 405 career free throws rank fourth most.
 
Fellow senior Jimmy Marshall finished with four points on the night, finishing a season-high perfect 4-for-4 from the charity stripe while also making a game-high two steals on the day. Alex Murphy finished his lone season with the Huskies with an eight-point night, pulling down four rebounds.
 
Towson got on the board first and never looked back taking as much as a 16-point lead in the first half, as Northeastern shot just 22.7 percent from the floor in the first stanza making just five field goals. The Huskies improved in the second half as four of their nine field goals came from deep, but finished with a season low 27.5 percent shooting from the field. Towson finished 53.8 percent, going 28-for-52 on the day.
