It marked just the fifth time the 'Cuse has lost its season opener under the direction of head coach Jim Boeheim.

ORANGE DEBUTS
Four freshmen made their Syracuse debut in the season opener. Jesse Edwards, Joseph Girard III, Bryce Goodine and Quincy Guerrier officially donned the orange for the first time. Girard III scored three points, while Edwards hit his only field goal attempt for two points.

SCOUTING THE RAIDERS
Wednesday's game marks the second for Colgate (1-1) against an ACC team in a span of four days. The Raiders are coming off an 81-68 loss at Clemson on Sunday, which evened their record at 1-1.

All five of Colgate's starters are averaging double figures in scoring after the first two games. Rapolas Ivanauskas leads the way with 19.0 ppg. He was named the 2018-19 Patriot League Player of the Year after transferring from Northwestern. In addition, Vanauskas was named an honorable mention All-American by the Associated Press.

Matt Langel is in his ninth season at the helm of the Colgate program. Last season, Langel was named Coach of the Year by the Patriot League, ECAC and NABC District 13 after he led Raiders to the NCAA Tournament and a program-record 24 wins.
