NEW HAVEN, Conn. (AP) - Anthony Dallier scored a career-high 30 points and Yale rallied from a 10-point second-half deficit to beat Brown 85-75 on Friday night for the Bulldogs’ second victory over the Bears in a week.

Brown (10-10, 1-3 Ivy League) started the second half on an 18-9 run, capped by a Tavon Blackmon 3-pointer, to lead 58-48. That was Brown’s last field goal for 11½ minutes with Yale (11-6, 3-1) outscoring the Bears 26-3. Blackmon ended the drought with a layup with 1:43 left and his 3-point play made it 80-73 with 38 seconds remaining but Brown got no closer.

Dallier was 15 of 18 from the line and made four Yale’s 10 steals. Trey Phills added 16 points and Sam Downey 10. Jordan Bruner had a career-high six of Yale’s 10 blocks. The Bulldogs made 30 of 36 free throws.

Steven Spieth scored 22 points with 10 rebounds for Brown. Obi Okolie added 18 points and Blackmon 16.

Yale has won 21 straight home games.
