Overview
- Freshman guard Chance Gladden raced upcourt and buried a 40-foot three at the horn to give BU a 73-72 Patriot League semifinal win in Annapolis.
- Officials said the game clock failed to start on BU’s inbounds, went to replay, and restored 0.6 seconds, confirming the attempt beat the buzzer.
- With 0.6 seconds put back, Navy’s last-ditch full-court heave missed, sending BU to face No. 2 seed Lehigh for the championship and the automatic NCAA berth.
- The loss snapped Navy’s 14-game winning streak and left the Midshipmen 26-7 (17-1 Patriot League) with at-large NCAA hopes viewed as unlikely.
- Gladden finished with 26 points for BU, Michael McNair added 22, and Navy’s Aidan Kehoe posted 26 points and 12 rebounds in defeat.
