Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets at Penn State Nittany Lions
· NCAA Men's Basketball
Kelly sinks two foul shots after controversial call and Georgia Tech sinks Penn State in OT
On the Yellow Jackets' last possession and down 81-80, Kowacie Reeves Jr. missed an open 3-pointer, and after rebounding his own miss, drove to the rim where Qudus Wahab blocked his shot. Kelly came up with the ball in a scramble and put a desperate, off-balance shot attempt. In the flurry, Penn State's Ace Baldwin Jr. — who was on the floor at Kelly's feet on the shot attempt — was whistled for a foul sending Kelly to the line.
Out of a timeout and having to go the length of the floor, Baldwin put a desperate heave that bounced hard off the backboard.
Tafara Gapare scored a career-high 20 points for Georgia Tech. He equaled his previous career high of 15 points in the first half alone. Gapare entered the game with 17 points scored all season.
Reeves scored 15 points for Georgia Tech (6-3), Baye Ndongo scored 12 and grabbed a career-high 19 rebounds and Kelly scored 10.

Dallan Coleman's 3-pointer gave Georgia Tech a 66-56 lead with 8:38 remaining in regulation. The Nittany Lions responded by increasing their defensive pressure and outscored the Yellow Jackets 16-6 to force the extra session.
