In major upset news: Ty Rogers hit a game-winning three-pointer as time expired in overtime as Western Kentucky defeated Drake, 101-99, in the first round of the West Region of the NCAA Tournament at St. Pete Times Forum.
After Drake took at 99-98 edge with 5.7 seconds left in the extra period following two free throws by Jonathan Cox, the Bulldogs called a timeout. Western Kentucky then inbounded the ball from under its own basket, went the length of the floor and Rogers nailed the three from the right side, well beyond the arc, to give the Hilltoppers the dramatic victory.
