Starks averaged 21 points and guided Bryant to back-to-back road wins last week, including a stunning 56-54 victory over Atlantic Coast Conference opponent Boston College. Before delivering the NEC’s newest Division I member its biggest victory in school history, the former Columbia Lion, who sat out last season due to NCAA transfer rules, opened the week with a career-high 25 points in a 68-61 win at Brown, shooting 8-of-16 from the field and 7-of-8 from the charity stripe. On Sunday, Starks put on a show for the Conte Forum faithful, scoring all 17 of his points in the second half to give the Bulldogs their first win over a BCS opponent. He netted 10 points in a key stretch as Bryant turned a 46-38 deficit with under nine minutes to play into a 51-49 edge with 5:09 left on the clock. Against the Eagles, he shot 7-of-11 from the field and 3-of-6 from distance. On the week, he shot 45.5% from the field and 87.5% from the free throw line as the Bulldogs stretched their win streak to three games.
