NORFOLK, Va. – In its second overtime contest in as many games, the Monarchs, who played with only four players after the first minute of the first overtime period, dropped a heart-wrenching 102-95 contest to Charlotte on Wednesday evening.
Junior Amari Young put together a career night, recorded both a career-high 24 points and 24 rebounds, just four rebounds shy of Inge Nissen's 28 rebounds in 1977 and 78. The achievement also marked the fifth-most boards tallied in a contest by a Monarch.
ODU (6-7, 3-6 C-USA) rallied from four points down in the final 14 seconds of regulation to tie up the contest, 75-75 via a Mariah Adams triple and three sank free throws from Aziah Hudson.
