Carter Fayhee (Macomb, Ill./Macomb) hit a buzzer-beating 3-pointer to force overtime and the Carl Sandburg College men’s basketball team erupted in the second extra session for a 91-75 double-overtime win at Illinois Valley on Tuesday night.
Fayhee beat the second-half buzzer to tie the game at 64, and he went on to score 13 of his 19 points on the night in the two overtime periods.
The teams were tied 74-74 after the first OT before the Chargers (16-6 overall, 2-2 Arrowhead Conference) dominated the Eagles (8-14, 2-2) 17-1 in the second overtime.
Freshman Jean Luc Wilson (East Moline, Ill./United Township) had a season-high scoring night for the second time in four games, dropping 27 points to lead the Chargers. His previous best was 24 points in Sandburg’s conference opener against Highland. Wilson has reached double figures in six of the Chargers’ last seven contests.
Sophomore guard Scott Gowan (Rockford, Ill./Rockford East) added 23 points for Sandburg, with 17 of those coming in the first half as the Chargers took a 40-29 lead into the locker room.
