The Bears represented Brown University, played their home games at the Meehan Auditorium and were coached by Brendan Whittet in his 14th season.

When the team started the second half of its season, there was a mild uptick in scoring but that was enough to give the Bears four wins in six games.

The offense slept-walked through the rest of their schedule and Brown didn't win once in their final nine games.

The losing skid sent the team plummeting to the bottom of the standings and they finished just a single point out of last place.

The Bears were forced to abandon their defensive structure to try and tie the game but all that did was give Union free rein to all to their lead.
