Brown Scores Career-Best 21 Points in Win as He Nets Winning Basket for the Second Straight Saturday

CHESTERTOWN, Md. – Junior forward Daniel Brown (Silver Spring, Md./Paint Branch) capped his career-best 21 points by rebounding his own miss with a layup with two seconds left in overtime to give host Washington College a 92-91 win in extra time over visiting Dickinson on Saturday afternoon in a Centennial Conference men's basketball game at the Cain Athletic Center.  It was the second straight Saturday that Brown hit the winning shot as last Saturday at Gettysburg in double overtime banked in a three-pointer with two seconds left in a 100-99 win.  The Shoremen are now 6-11 overall and 4-6 in the Centennial, while the Red Devils are 2-15 and 2-8 respectively.
