The Lowe, Lowe and Lo show

Men's Basketball
Michael King

There's a good chance that someone named with the last name that's pronounced as 'low' will be one of the primary factors in tonight's game against Boston University. The Minutemen have junior point guard Chris Lowe, who leads the team in assists and averages about 11 points per game. UMass also has freshmen center Papa Lo who is developing into a shotblocking sensation. Last time out against CCSU last weekend, Lo blocked six shots in 12 minutes of action.

Meanwhile the Terriers are led by sophomore point guard Corey Lowe. He averages a team-high 19.1 points per game and 4.6 rebounds.

There's a surprisingly large crowd at the Mullins Center this evening, considering the New England Patriots kick off in less than 45 minutes. Though the crowd will be well below its average size especially since students are not on campus.
