Eagles Battle Back But Fall at Georgia Tech 82-78 in OT

ATLANTA (AP) Jordan Usher scored 30 points on 12-of-16 shooting and Georgia Tech defeated Boston College 82-78 in overtime on Saturday after losing a 15-point second-half lead.

The Yellow Jackets didn't make it easy on themselves, making just 4 of 8 free throws in overtime, but Michael Devoe finally clinched it by sinking the second of two attempts after his rebound on BC's potential game-tying 3-pointer with two seconds left.

Devoe had 18 points and eight rebounds for Georgia Tech (12-19, 5-15 Atlantic Coast Conference), which ended a four-game losing streak, in which three games were decided by four points or less.
