Trailing by five, Fordham made another run, scoring 8-of-10, to take a one-point lead, 58-57, as the clock read six minutes. The two teams exchanged buckets before a huge three by Stone with three minutes left gave the home unit the advantage for good, 62-61. Chen added on to the lead while Mitchell grabbed two consecutive offensive rebounds that wasted nearly a minute of action. The Tigers then hit five from the charity stripe over the final 24 seconds to collect the win.Whoa. ??@kaitilyn2 || #GetStops ???? pic.twitter.com/dGogGLDRrE
