Mark Alstork made two free throws for the Raiders to tie it at 59-all with 1:19 remaining. On the next possession, Huskies (3-0) senior Aaric Armstead was fouled on a 3-pointer with just 2 seconds left on the shot clock, and made 2 of 3 attempts.
JT Yoho missed a deep 3-point attempt for Wright State (1-2), and Baker came off a ball screen set by Michael Orris to nail the 3 and give Northern Illinois a two-possession lead.
Baker made 3 3-pointers and finished with 12 points. Armstead had 18 on 5-of-9 shooting.
Wright State was 1 for its last 10 and made just six second-half field goals after a 15-of-28 first half. Yoho led with 16 points.
