Cameron Young had 27 points and 10 rebounds to lead Quinnipiac. Washington had 14 points and Abdulai Bundu chipped in 13.

The Bobcats led 54-45 with 12 minutes to play before Dunne made a 3-pointer to spark a 19-6 surge for a 64-60 Hartford lead. Washington's 3-point play tied the game 67-67 with 3:36 remaining, and it was a one-possession game the rest of the way.
