League semifinal
By The Associated Press
ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) --- Chance Gladden buried a 3-pointer at the buzzer,
scoring 24 of his 26 points in the second half to help Boston University stun
top-seeded Navy 73-72 on Sunday in the semifinals of the Patriot League
Championship, ending the Midshipmen's 14-game winning streak .
Gladden's game winner for the fourth-seeded Terriers (17-16) came after Austin
Benigni drove for a go-ahead layup for the Midshipmen (26-7) with three seconds
remaining.
Boston University will play No. 2 seed Lehigh in the championship game on
Wednesday. Lehigh beat third-seeded Colgate 76-69 in an earlier semifinal
Sunday.
Gladden shot 8 for 12 from the floor (3 for 5 from 3-point range) and 7 for 8
from the free-throw line for the Terriers. Michael McNair totaled 22 points and
seven rebounds, hitting 5 of 8 shots from beyond the arc. Ben Defty pitched in
with 14 points on 6-for-7 shooting, adding seven rebounds.
Aidan Kehoe led the Midshipmen with 26 points, 12 rebounds, five steals and two
blocks. Benigni contributed 17 points, six assists and three steals.
Navy swept the Terriers during the regular season.
