Last Second Shot Leads Transylvania Past Rose-Hulman 67-65

LEXINGTON, Ky. -- Transylvania University guard Jaylan Green scored the game winning driving layup with one second remaining, lifting the Pioneers to a 67-65 men's basketball victory over Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology on Saturday afternoon.

Rose-Hulman rallied from a 65-60 deficit to knot the score at 65-65.  Zachary Jackson scored on a layup at the 1:57 mark to bring the Fightin' Engineers within 65-62, before one free throw from Terry Hicks and two more by Jackson tied the score with 1:23 remaining.

The Fightin' Engineers had a pair of chances to take the lead after Transylvania empty possessions in the final minute, but a Rose-Hulman drive to the basket rimmed out with 14 seconds remaining to set up the final game winning possession for Transylvania.

Hicks led the Rose-Hulman with 20 points on 8-10 from the field.  Max Chaplin scored 11 points, and Miles McGowen added a double-double with 10 points and 10 rebounds to balance the Fightin' Engineer attack.

Other key contributors for Rose-Hulman included Bradley Harden and Kobe Stoudemire with 8 points and 3 assists each; and Jackson with 6 points.

Green led the Transylvania offense with 18 points, and Colby Napier added 15 points for the Pioneers.

Transylvania improved to 9-8 overall and 6-4 in HCAC play, while Rose-Hulman dropped to 9-8 and 6-4 in conference games.  The Fightin' Engineers return home to face Hanover College on Wednesday at 7:30 pm.
