MCLA Men Fall in Overtime
![]() |
In the first half the two teams were tight on the stats page with MCLA taking a slight edge on the boards (28-26) and field goal percentage (67%-58%). In the second half the teams continued to exchange the lead seeing a 68 point lock with just under a minute to play in regulation. The Rams jumped out to a three point lead on a shot by Carey.
MCLA's Mike Perreault (Whitinsville, MA) answered right back with two to bring the deficit to one. Framingham was plagued all night by poor freethrow shooting, but Roderick Jackson (Cambridge, MA) was able to convert one bring the Rams' lead back to two. With 2.3 seconds left, Framingham fouled sending Perreault to the line. He converted both chances locking the game at 72 a piece and sending the teams into overtime.
It seemed as if the Trailblazers just ran out of steam in the overtime. Framingham outscored the Trailblazers by eight in extra time to earn their tenth (10-8) in of the season and second (2-3) in the MASCAC. MCLA falls to 1-15 overall and 0-4 in the conference.
