WASHINGTON, D.C. — Despite a career and game high 24 points from senior guard Grant Huffman, the Davidson Wildcats fell 83-79 to George Washington in overtime on Saturday afternoon.
Huffman scored 18-straight second-half points for the Wildcats before Bobby Durkin drained his second triple of the day to push Davidson in front 75-72 in the final 56 seconds of regulation.
George Washington answered on the other end of the floor, connecting on a free throw and driving layup from Maximus Edwards to notch things at 75-all and force the overtime period.
The Revolutionaries got off to a 6-2 start in the extra frame to pull ahead 81-77 and ultimately secured the lead for good despite three 3-point attempts from the 'Cats in the closing minute.
Overall, the Wildcats shot 47.7 percent from the floor, after a 53.1 percent effort in the first half, and out-rebounded the Revolutionaries 42-38. The two teams exchanged 16 lead changes.
Davidson went into halftime with a five-point lead, 44-39, thanks to buckets from Huffman and Angelo Brizzi down the stretch. But, GW jumped out to a 7-0 run at the start of the second and began the back-and-forth affair for the final 25 minutes of play.
The 'Cats ended with 46 points in the paint while Connor Kochera (14) and David Skogman (12) joined Huffman in double digits.
Davidson made it to the free throw line 19 times, connecting on nine shots.
With the loss, the Wildcats fall to 10-6 overall and 0-3 in Atlantic 10 play.
Up Next
The Wildcats will stay on the road to take on Fordham on Wednesday, Jan. 17 in the Bronx.
