Albany 51 Stony Brook 50

Final in the American East championship game. Stony Brook remains snakebit - they had a 7 or 8 point lead late but let it slip away.

 

Amazing back story to this one. Kid that hit the winning 3 with 1.6 seconds left is from Australia. Took a leave of absence in January for a couple of weeks to be with his dying mother (she did pass away).
