College career

He was named Northeast Conference Player of the Week three times as a sophomore. On February 20, 2016, he became the only player since the 2010-11 season score at least 39 points, post six rebounds and six assists without turning the ball over. Broome was named Northeast Conference Men's Basketball Player of the Year in his sophomore season at Sacred Heart, just the second sophomore to do so.[1] On the season, he averaged 23.1 points and 4.9 rebounds per game. Broome announced in April 2016 that he would transfer to Cincinnati and sit out a season.[2] It was an adjustment, as Broome was used to being the star player and became a role player. As a junior, he scored in double figures seven times and considers his 16-point, five-assist performance in a loss to Xavier on December 2 his best game.[3] Broome averaged 7.9 points per game as a junior on a 31-5 Cincinnati team that earned a 2 seed in the NCAA Tournament.[4]
