MARYVILLE, Tenn. — Centre defeats Maryville on buzzer beater

With the score tied at 71 apiece, sophomore center Alex Lloyd (Lexington, Ky.) hit a lay-up as time expired to give the Centre College men's basketball team a 73-71 road win over Maryville College, Tuesday, Nov. 18 in Maryville, Tenn.

The Colonels have now won their first two games by a combined four points to open the season 2-0. The game was the first of the season for Maryville, which falls to 0-1.

The first half was tight throughout as the lead changed hands 12 times. After senior guard T.C. Thomason scored to give Centre a 26-24 lead with 2:27 remaining in the opening period, the Scots scored five of the final seven minutes to take a 29-28 lead into the locker room.

The Colonels out-scored Maryville 19-10 to open the second half and take a 49-39 lead with 13:24 left in the game. The lead grew to as many as 17 points (58-41), but the Scots would make a run.

Maryville used a 14-2 run to cut the Centre lead to 60-55. The two teams went back and forth exchanging baskets. Trailing by seven with 1:34 left, the Scots scored eight of the next nine points, including a basket with five seconds left to tie the game at 71. The Colonels then raced down the court with Lloyd hitting the game-winner as time expired to give Centre the 73-71 victory.

Junior Danny Noll led all scorers with 20 points on eight of 13 shooting. Senior guard Ryan Crowdis added 17 points, while Thomason finished with 12 points and five rebounds.
