The Providence Friars had lost the last six times they scored 50 points or fewer. Thanks to the Northeastern Huskies’ hapless offense, that streak was snapped today in a 50-45 victory. This game was just as much of a rock fight as the scoreline indicates. Neither team shot over 37% from the field, nor did…
BOSTON, MASS – The excitement of a new season for the Huskies should bring a fresh feeling of ‘good things to come’ for the women at Cabot Center.

With just one game left before CAA play begins, the Huskies need to give their out-of-conference opponents everything they’ve got.

After an encouraging end to the 2024 season, head coach Jeremy Bonomo is carefully managing expectations with a squad that has witnessed significant turnover since last year’s campaign came to a close.

Freshman…
The 2024-25 regular season came and went in the blink of an eye. Now it’s March, and in college basketball, March is synonymous with one thing: tournament season. Of course there’s the big one — March Madness – but there are dozens of conference tournaments to be played first, where each will populate an NCAA…
BOSTON, MA — The future of Matthews Arena is admittedly up in the air. For 44 long years, the old barn has played a very gracious host to Northeastern men’s basketball. While the red and black will grace the historic building for at least part of one more season, you don’t want to take things…
BOSTON – Coming off of the thrill of their first home win of the season, Northeastern’s hopes for a winning streak were not answered against Towson.

Two…
BOSTON, MA — With the toughest part of the CAA schedule behind them, Thursday marked a foot-in-the-ground opportunity for Northeastern to get back on track.

BOSTON — On Saturday, Northeastern looked discombobulated after back-to-back losses to Providence.

In a solid, complete game performance, the Huskies took down the Terriers once again in…
With a rotation of just six players Sunday, Northeastern started strong against William & Mary in a CAA conference matchup in the Cabot Center.

BOSTON — Is it possible to hit rock bottom three games into the season? The Huskies certainly hope Thursday night’s game — a 58-31 thumping on their home floor at the hands of New Hampshire — is the worst it gets, because otherwise, it is going to be a long and agonizing year on Huntington…

BROOKLINE – As Northeastern fifth-year Jesse Hunt punched in her third goal of the 2024 campaign to tie the game in the 57th minute, the Huskies’ momentum was palpable and the team’s first win of the season seemed within reach.

But as the two sides clashed in…

BROOKLINE — Over the course of the long, arduous CAA season, Northeastern has gone through several ups and downs. One of the downs came just last weekend, when they dropped a game to the Hofstra Pride by a narrow 1-0 margin. Occasionally, all a team needs to stop a skid is a bit of home…
BROOKLINE — After dropping a disappointing match against the Campbell Camels, Northeastern came back home to Parsons Field for a matchup against a New Hampshire side that received ranking votes.
