Leading 61-59 with 11 seconds to play, junior Justin Archie picked off a pass and threw home a thunderous dunk to help the Blue Raiders top eighth ranked Georgetown (KY College 63-59 on Saturday at Biggers Sports Center.



Archie finished the game with a career-high six steals to go along with 15 points and two rebounds. Senior Brandon Clemons made sure senior night would be a success adding 16 points and seven rebounds, while Chase Spreen added 13 points.

Tyrone Shelley led the Tigers with 20 points and 12 rebounds and Victor Moses added 13 points and seven rebounds in the loss.

Georgetown led just once at the 1:16 mark of the second half, but the lead was short lived as the Blue Raiders came through in the clutch with a runner in the lane by Clemons, free throw by junior Charles Baker and the highlight-reel dunk by Archie.

Lindsey Wilson found success by dictating the tempo the entire game, instead of waiting to attack on offense, the Blue Raiders took the ball straight at Georgetown, keeping it on its heels the entire game.

The shooting percentages weren't great for either team, with Georgetown leading the way at 43.1 percent from the field and 16.7 percent from behind the arc. The Blue Raiders shot just 39.2 percent from the field and 23.5 percent from three.

Georgetown hit 92.3 percent from the free-throw line hitting 12-of-13 attempts, while Lindsey Wilson hit 19-of-28 from the stripe for 67.9 percent. The Blue Raiders did edge the Tigers on the glass 35-32 to help seal the win.
