WILLIAMSBURG, Va. – The Central Michigan men’s basketball team hit three 3-pointers in the final 39 seconds in a frantic comeback attempt Tuesday at William & Mary.

The Chippewas needed one more.

CMU trailed by nine points with just under a minute remaining, then clawed back to within three – and had the ball – with 8.9 seconds remaining only to fall short, 88-84, to the Tribe in a non-league game at Kaplan Arena.

The loss dropped CMU to 6-6. The Chippwas play host to NAIA Lourdes (7-7) 1 p.
