Men’s basketball beat Massachusetts 83-67 on Thursday night in the Smith Center.

GW led in points in the paint for only the fifth time all season and outrebounded Massachusetts 41 to 29.

GW plays George Mason Sunday in its second-to-last home game.

The Hatchet incorrectly reported that the Colonials beat Massachusetts in their last home game. It was their second-to-last home game. We regret this error.
