STILLWATER, Okla. — *EDITOR'S NOTE: The above video is from this past May.
Bryce Williams scored a career-high 29 points, Avery Anderson III added another 29 points and Oklahoma State held off Cleveland State 98-93 in overtime.
The Cowboys' Keylan Boone blocked the potential game-tying layup with 20 seconds left in OT, then Williams made 1 of 2 from the line and Anderson followed with a pair for the final margin.
Williams and Anderson scored 22 of OSU's (7-3) final 24 points in regulation, the last two coming on Anderson's coast-to-coast layup with 2 seconds left that sent the game to overtime. D'Moi Hodge scored 31 points to lead the Vikings (6-3), but missed what would've been a game-winning floater with a second to play in regulation following Anderson's make.
It was a heartbreaking loss for CSU, and the road will only get tougher in the short-term. On Saturday afternoon, the Vikings will head to Durham, North Carolina, to face No. 2 Duke for the first time ever.
