SIOUX CITY, Iowa–\u00a0<\/strong>Marc Kjos<\/a> (SO\/Lake City, MN) sank a three-pointer at the buzzer to give the University of Jamestown men’s basketball team a 72-71 win over Briar Cliff University Wednesday night.<\/p>\n

Jamestown matched a season-high with its fifth straight win and is now 17-5 overall and 13-4 in the GPAC. Briar Cliff falls to 11-12 overall and 8-10 in the conference.<\/p>\n

The Jimmies led 40-31 at the half and extended the lead to double digits following a Mason Walters<\/a> (SO\/Jamestown, ND) basket at the 17:44 mark of the second half. Briar Cliff responded with a 15-4 run over the next 4:56 to tie the game at 48.<\/p>\n

Kjos hit back-to-back shots and Walters added another as a 6-0 run lasting 62 seconds put the Jimmies back in front. The Chargers came back with the next seven points to go ahead by one, and the pressure intensified.<\/p>\n

Jamestown’s final lead came at 62-61 when Jack Talley<\/a> (SR\/Sioux Falls, SD) scored with 4:10 left in the game. Ethan Friedel and Quinten Vasa made three-pointers, and Quinn Vesey sank a bucket to put BCU up by five with 2:10 left.<\/p>\n

Cole Woodford<\/a> (FR\/Redwood Falls, MN) connected on a three to make it a two-point Charger lead with 1:04 left, then Kjos tied the game with 29 seconds to play.<\/p>\n

Briar Cliff took a 71-69 lead as Conner Groves got open for a layup with 1.3 seconds left.<\/p>\n

Faced with going the length of the floor, Jamestown took a time out and drew up a play to perfection. Woodford inbounded the ball and threw a pass deflected by Brock Schrom<\/a> (SR\/Grand Rapids, MN) at the top of the three-point line. The ball found its way over to Kjos on the left wing, and his release found nothing but the bottom of the net as the clock reached zero.<\/p>\n

Kjos finished with a game-high 18 points, making four three-pointers. Woodford had 10 off the bench and Brady Birch<\/a> (SR\/Melrose, MN) recorded a double-double of 10 points and 11 rebounds.<\/p>\n

Vasa led BCU with 16 points, and Jaden Kleinhesselink added 13 and five assists. Groves was also in double figures with 11.<\/p>\n

UJ moves into second place in the conference standings, 1 1\/2 games behind Morningside (15-3) and a half-game ahead of Dakota Wesleyan (12-4).<\/p>\n

The Jimmies host Midland on Saturday at 4 p.m. in their final regular-season home game.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
