BOSTON
- Bolden Brace and Shaquille Walters led a quartet of Northeastern players in double figures with 15 points each, but William & Mary's Nathan Knight made the game-winning shot with 1.1 seconds left to defeat the Huskies (9-7, 3-1 CAA), 66-64, on Saturday inside Matthews Arena. Walters tied the game with 13 seconds remaining with an old-fashion three-point play, but Knight answered at the other end and finished with 23 points and 11 rebounds.

The Tribe (11-5, 3-0 CAA) shot 55 percent (29-for-53) for the game. The Huskies trailed by 14 points with 10 minutes remaining, but rallied over the final five minutes with a 15-4 run to tie the game. The loss snaps an eight-game home court winning streak in CAA play for the Huskies.

Maxime Boursiquot added a season-best 13 points, while Tyson Walker scored eight of his 10 points in the second half. Northeastern shot 44 percent (27-for-62) for the game and 32 percent (6-for-19) from behind the arc. The nation's eighth-best scorer, Jordan Roland, finished with seven points for the Huskies.

Northeastern will host Hofstra (12-5, 3-1 CAA) in a nationally-televised game on CBS Sports Network on Thursday night inside Matthews Arena. Tip is slated for 8:05 p.m. and one lucky student could win $2,000 if they make a halfcourt shot, presented by Coca-Cola.
