Springfield ties ONIONS to their belt, as was the style at the time...three-pointer at the buzzer to force OT after Hamilton missed two FTs with 3.6 seconds left that would have sealed it!

Andy McNulty of Springfield hit a 25-foot buzzer-beater to send the Pride into overtime against Hamilton at 81-81.

Exit the NESCAC, as for the second time tonight New England's premier conference has a rep lose to a NEWMAC team. Springfield fends off Hamilton in OT, 92-90.

There's always that discussion about when you're up 3 do you foul or not. With less than 4 seconds left in regulation I was thinking they should if he missed the FT because a second or two would run off and they couldn't tie it at the line. Sure enough he missed, they didn't foul, and Springfield hit the 3 to tie.

Exciting down to the wire finishes so far.

DePauw's Coach Fenlon would have fouled. He has laid it in out and probability states you should foul. Here is the paper he published:

Swarthmore leads Plattsburgh State at the half, 41-27. The Garnet look very impressive, in spite of the fact that All-American guard Cam Wiley sat out much of the half with two fouls and has only scored two points for the hosts.

Ramapo survives a late F&M comeback attempt and advances to the quarterfinals with a 72-62 win.
