The Syracuse Orange men’s basketball team entered its Saturday afternoon road matchup against the Boston College Eagles cold as ice, as the program hoped to break a three-game losing streak that saw demoralizing defeats to North Carolina, Virginia Tech, and Virginia.
Against the Eagles, the Orange (14-10, 7-6) returned to form especially on the offensive end, with Jesse Edwards, Judah Mintz, and Joe Girard combined for 60 of Syrcuse’s 77 points en route to a 77-68 victory against the Eagles (11-13, 5-8).
Entering the game as losers of four of its last five games, Syracuse looked to its primary creators early to get going.
