BOSTON – The Boston University men's basketball team will feature four captains this upcoming season, as announced by head coach Joe Jones Monday morning.

Graduate student Miles Brewster, senior Malcolm Chimezie, senior Ethan Okwuosa and junior Ben Roy all earned the nod with Brewster serving in the role for the second consecutive season.

Brewster (Brooklyn, New York) collected both Lou Cohen MVP honors and the Tunji Awojobi Award as the squad's top defensive player during the program's spring banquet. He started all 33 contests on his way to becoming the first Terrier to earn All-Patriot League (Second Team), All-Defensive Team and Academic All-PL honors in the same season. Brewster ranked in the top 15 in the PL in seven categories, including 1.5 spg (#3), 40.7 3FG% (#5), 3.3 apg (#6) and 10.8 ppg (#15) while also ranking third (75th nationally) with a 2.3 assist-to-turnover ratio. Highlight performances include 21-point games against Colgate and American and also a personal-best five-steal contest at Rutgers. He graduated with a bachelor's in international relations and is currently pursuing a master's in television.

Chimezie (Yonkers, New York) has maintained a positive outlook and been very supportive of his teammates when unable to take the court due to multiple injuries. He has been a member of the Bloom Family Leadership Academy since his sophomore year and was one of just two Patriot League representatives selected to attend the NCAA Student-Athlete Leadership Forum this past spring due to his leadership capabilities. Tapped into BU's prestigious Scarlet Key Honor Society on Sunday after Brewster earned the recognition a year prior, Chimezie is the event coordinator for the Student-Athletes of Color organization while maintaining a 3.00+ GPA as a sociology major. Limited to eight games last season, he posted eight points and eight rebounds with two blocks at UAlbany.

Okwuosa (North Haven, Conn.) started 31 of 33 games played in his first season with the Terriers after earning All-NE10 honors as a sophomore at Southern New Hampshire. A two-time College Sports Communicators (CSC) Academic All-District honoree as a psychology major, he claimed a double-double with 13 points and 10 rebounds in a win over Bryant. He scored in double figures nine times and finished with seven or more rebounds five times on his way to averaging 7.5 ppg and 4.2 rpg while totaling 23 steals alongside seven blocks. He played a key role in helping BU win back-to-back OT thrillers, first tallying 12 points alongside five rebounds vs. Loyola Maryland and then earning 11 points with a team-high eight rebounds at Lehigh.

Roy (Spring Lake Heights, New Jersey) made big strides in his second season with the Terriers, averaging 22.8 mpg after seeing a combined 68 minutes of action the previous year to earn the Reggie Stewart Award for best exemplifying the traits of BU basketball. He owns a 3.00+ GPA majoring in business administration and management while helping direct the offense. He tallied a career-high 11 points vs. Bryant and dished out at least three assists in a game seven times, including five helpers against VTSU-Johnson. On the defensive front, he claimed three steals vs. Army West Point.

Returning all five starters from last year's squad that finished second in the PL standings for the first time since 2017, the Terriers will open the new season on Monday, Nov. 4, at Case Gym against Northeastern as part of a home doubleheader with the women.
