Cyr contributed a dominant performance for the Eagles this weekend at the Brandeis Tip-off Tournament, as the Eagles won the four-team tournament, including a thrilling win over Brandeis in overtime in the title game. Cyr recorded a historic performance in the title game win, recording 37 points and 22 rebounds, while shooting 16-24 from the floor and a perfect 5-5 from the foul line.
