Notes

  • In the 1988-89 season, GW went 1-27, but their lone win was over UMass.
  • UMass was supposed to play at GW on January 6, 2021, but the game was postponed due to the D.C. emergency curfew.1) It was ultimately not rescheduled, along with several other games in the COVID-disrupted 2020-21 season.
  • GW changed their athletic nickname from Colonials to Revolutionaries in 2023.2)3)

Mike Jarvis was our nemesis during his GW tenure from 1990-91 through 1997-98:

  • In those seasons, UMass went 206-64 (.763) overall, but only 8-9 (.471) versus GW.
  • John Calipari led UMass to a 166-39 (.810) overall record in the 1990-96 span, but was only 6-7 (.462) versus GW.
  • UMass, under Calipari, was 39-2 at the Mullins Center. Both losses came against GW.
  • UMass narrowly avoid a third Mullins Center loss to GW, on 1/22/1994. UMass rallied from an 11-point deficit to win on a Marcus Camby dunk with 2.9 seconds left, after a controversial offensive foul on GW.
  • UMass went 42-6 in Atlantic 10 conference games in the 1993-94 through 1995-96 seasons, but only 1-4 versus GW. The one win was that 1-point win in 1994.
  • UMass went 17-3 in A-10 Tournament games from 1991-98. All three losses were to GW.
