Recap |  Box Score

UMass is 7-0 for the first time since the 1995-96 season when UMass began 26-0 on the way to the 1996 Final Four.

The 7-game win streak is the longest for UMass since a 10-game win streak from Jan. 3-Feb. 1, 1998.

UMass is now 2-0 all-time vs. Quinnipiac, beating the Bobcats 62-58, last season in Amherst.

Javorn Farrell reached double-figures in the first half and finished with a career-high 25, his fourth game in five he has played this season in double-figures and first-ever with 20-plus. It was his sixth-career game with 10 or more points. His previous career-high was 15 vs. New Mexico State (11/20).

Farrell also had career-highs in field goals made (8) and attempts (13).

Anthony Gurley tallied 10 points in the first half on his way to 19 as he has been in double-figures in all seven games this season and now 56 times in his 100 career games.

It's the first time this season Gurley was not the leading scorer for UMass.
