BOSTON - Maxime Boursiquot scored a career-best 18 points and Jordan Roland added 17 as the Northeastern Huskies (13-13, 7-7 CAA) cruised past the College of Charleston (15-12, 9-6 CAA), 65-51, on Saturday inside Matthews Arena. The Huskies went on a 17-0 run in the second half, holding the Cougars scoreless for over 11 minutes to pick up the season sweep over CofC.

Bolden Brace reached double figures with 13 points and grabbed a team-best eight rebounds. Tyson Walker scored 11 for the Huskies, adding four assists and two steals. Guilien Smith posted a career-best six rebounds and held CofC's Grant Riller, the CAA's second-leading scorer, under double figures for the first time all season.

The two teams played to a 33-33 score in the first 20 minutes, but Northeastern's defense stifled the Cougars in the second half, outscoring CofC 29-5 over a 15-minute span to take control of the game. NU dominated the paint, outscoring the Cougars 34-12 and won the battle of the boards, 36-24.

Head Coach Bill Coen moves into second all-time in league history with 159 CAA wins, surpassing former Drexel Coach Bruiser Flint's 158 from 2002-16.

CofC's Zep Jasper was the only player in double figures for the Cougars, finishing with 10 points.

The Huskies will hit the road for games at Delaware on Thursday night and Drexel on Saturday. Both games can be seen on FloHoops.com.
