MEN, Mary Washington 69, Wesley 67: The Wolverines led for much of the second half but the Eagles drilled a buzzer-beater to topple the Wolverines.

Mary Washington’s T.J. Jones took the inbound pass with 15 seconds left and waited for the clock to wind down. With seven seconds remaining, the guard used a screen at the top of the key and threw up a fadeaway shot that found its way in from 17 feet out with 0.9 seconds remaining.

Wesley missed a desperation shot at the buzzer.

The Wolverines (1-4 CAC, 3-9 overall) ran out to an eight-point lead with 3:34 remaining. But Mary Washington rattled off seven straight points to cut the lead to 67-66 with 1:11 remaining.
