Herve Laminaza hits two three-point shots in the final 10 seconds to give Rutgers a 65-64 victory over Providence at the RAC in Piscataway, New Jersey. Laminaza throws in the first trey off the backboard and the game winner with less than a second remaining while falling out of bounds. It’s the second straight buzzer-beater heartbreak for the Friars; in their last game, Texas beat them on a disputed shot in overtime. The dramatic win propels the Scarlet Knights to a 20-13 record, and they’ll reach the finals of the NIT before losing to Michigan.
