Excerpt from the Dayton Daily News
The play unfolded so quickly, nobody was quite sure at first what happened.
Wright State had a three-point lead with 4.4 seconds left, and Northen Kentucky’s Trey Robinson was at the foul line for two free throws.
It’s over, right?
Hardly. Far from it.
Fourth-seeded Wirght State dropped a 99-97 overtime decision at home Thursday in the Horizon League quarterfinals — despite building a 17-2 lead in the first 4:45, leading by 17 with six minutes to go in the first half and, after the fifth-seeded Norse caught them, pulling away again for a 61-53 edge at 13:11 of the second half.
They seemed to have averted disaster after falling behind by one with under a minute to go. Trey Calvin scored on a drive with 35 seconds left for an 87-86 lead, and, after a rare miss from NKU star Marques Warrick, Calvin was fouled and converted a 1-and-1 with 15.4 seconds to go.
