For as long as I’ve followed this team, it seems like there has been one knock that I have had that has been consistent. It always seems like Eastern Michigan has always fallen short in the free throw game. They had several opportunities to put the Broncos away in regulation time but their free throws would clang off the rim.
This time around, however, the Eagles managed to hold on for a win, taking victory from the hapless Broncos by a final score of 77-76 in overtime.
Eastern Michigan’s Paul Jackson would lead all scorers with 20 points, heating up late in the game.
