Boeheim brothers take over in Syracuse basketball’s 2OT win against Indiana

SYRACUSE, N.Y. — The Syracuse Orange men’s basketball team beat the Indiana Hoosiers 112-110 in double-overtime on Tuesday night as part of the ACC/Big Ten Challenge. It was the first multiple-overtime victory for the program since taking down UConn in six overtimes in the 2009 Big East Tournament.

Syracuse was led by Buddy and Jimmy Boeheim as the brace of brothers combined to produce 53 points, 10 assists, 8 rebounds and 6 steals.

“I just thought Buddy and Jimmy we’re tremendous,” Jim Boeheim said post-game.

Both Boeheim brothers posted season-highs as younger brother Buddy scored 27 while Jimmy put up 26.
