WASHINGTON (AP) - Garrison Carr scored 22 points and hit five
3-pointers as American University defeated Brown on Friday night.

Derrick Mercer scored 11 points and Jordan Nichols added 10
points for the Eagles (7-6), who used a 13-5 run over the final 3
minutes of the first half to pull away before the break. Carr also
hit back-to-back 3-pointers to open the second half, extending the
American lead.
