PORTLAND, Ore. – Senior guard D'Marques Tyson hit six three-pointers and scored a game-high 22 points and freshman guard Marcus Shaver Jr. made a pair of free throws with 2.3 seconds left to give the Portland Pilots a 68-66 victory over the Loyola Marymount Lions in West Coast Conference play Saturday afternoon at the Chiles Center. The win gives the Pilots a season sweep of LMU and is Portland's fourth win in the last six games.
The Lions (7-16, 2-10 WCC), coming off of a big home win against BYU on Thursday, had a three-pointer by James Batemon rim off at the buzzer as the Pilots (10-15, 4-8) held on in an exciting back-and-forth game.
