The UCF men's basketball team snapped their two-game losing streak at home on Sunday afternoon, beating Miami (Ohio) in overtime 80-73 in front of an announced crowd of 2,939.

"Having to bounce back off back-to-back losses, I think our guys showed a lot of character," coach Johnny Dawkins said. "After coming off two losses like this, I thought our guys did respond and [were] able to get a hard-fought victory."

Sophomore center Tacko Fall led the way for the Knights with a career-high 31 points on 92 percent shooting to go along with 10 rebounds and two blocks.
