There was a wild finish out west tonight, as Northern Arizona knocked off Saint Mary’s in Moraga, California.
It happened liked this: NAU was down by four with 50 seconds left before Quinton Upshur hit a three. After Brad Waldow was fouled with 18 seconds left, Kris Yanku scored a layup at the other end with just a few seconds left on the clock. Upshur stole the ensuing inbounds and laid the ball in.
Game over.
Here’s video of it:
Upshur finished with 26 points. Waldow had 25, 12 boards and six assists. The Gaels were coming off of a notable win at Creighton this weekend.
