New Hampshire overcame a 21-point deficit on Sunday, Feb. 14 at Binghamton University to snap a four-game losing streak with a 63-55 win on the road. The Bearcats led 29-8 with 8:47 left in the first half and looked to put the game away early. Just six minutes later, UNH cut it to eight points on a 18-5 run. They completed the comeback for good in the second half on a 3-pointer by Smith with 6:38 to play. The Wildcats hit 21 of 25 attempts after the 29-8 deficit to slowly pull back.
