Rhode Island’s Farrell, Brown’s Lilly collect hoops hardware. Here’s what they won
Brown men’s basketball coach Mike Martin speaks after a Bears win Sunday
The Bears recorded 27 assists and 15 made-threes, the most assists in at least a decade, the close out the College Hill Classic on Sunday night.
Kino Lilly Jr. and Tyonne Farrell took home some hardware as college basketball season cruised past the halfway point of its opening month.
Lilly was named the Ivy League Player of the Week and Farrell repeated as the Atlantic 10 Rookie of the Week. The guard from Brown and forward from the University of Rhode Island received their respective honors on Monday afternoon.
Lilly posted three 20-point games in as many nights for the Bears at their College Hill Classic, which was played at the Pizzitola Center. He hit for 26 points in an opening Friday win over New Hampshire and collected 20 in a closing Sunday victory over Sacred Heart. Lilly was 14-for-29 from 3-point range and posted 13 assists.
Lilly set a Brown program mark in the middle game against Holy Cross, surpassing JR Hobbie as the all-time leader in 3-pointers. Hobbie connected 257 times from beyond the arc in his 115 games, a career that ran from 2013-17. Lilly is currently at 264 makes from deep through 91 career games, starting with the Bears in 2021.
Farrell recorded a first career double-double in a blowout of Franklin Pierce, totaling 10 points and 10 rebounds in the 105-73 triumph. Farrell added six assists and two steals in just 22 minutes, as the Rams pulled away in the second half. He was a plus-22 in the box score.
Farrell is the first URI freshman to win consecutive conference rookie honors since E.C. Matthews grabbed four straight in 2013-14. That string was broken by teammate Hassan Martin — both cornerstones were among the first recruiting class brought in by former coach Dan Hurley. Farrell looks to have the makings of an impact talent for the Rams, starting each of his first three career games.
Brown will be back in action on Saturday at Canisius. URI returns sooner, hosting Lafayette in a 7 p.m. tip on Wednesday. The two teams will renew their rivalry series on Dec. 10 on the East Side.

A cold front is bringing another arctic blast to start the workweek across Southern New England.
The cold frontal passage Sunday night will usher in much colder-than-average temperatures for Monday. Low temperatures on Monday morning will be in the low 20s, with afternoon highs in the upper 20s, but it will feel like the teens all day due to the wind chill on Monday.
The coldest weather arrives for Tuesday morning as lows drop near 10 degrees in many spots with the feels-like wind chill in the single digits.
It turns a little less cold on Tuesday afternoon with highs back above freezing in the mid-30s.
Wednesday will be the mildest day of the week with highs in the mid-to-upper 40s. As temperatures climb above freezing, we could see a few light rain showers Wednesday afternoon into Wednesday evening.
Colder temperatures return again on Thursday and Friday with highs back into the 30s.
We’ll be watching next weekend for the potential of a coastal storm trying to develop, but at this point it looks likely to stay offshore and bring minimal impacts to Southern New England. Check back for updates with Storm Team 10.
