FORT MYERS, Fla. (AP) Zach Johnson made four 3-pointers and scored 21 points and Christian Terrell's layup with two seconds to play in overtime helped Florida Gulf Coast beat Long Beach State 68-67 on Friday night in a Battle 4 Atlantis campus game.

Long Beach State scored seven straight points in overtime, but Terrell made a jumper and Demetris Morant dunked and the Eagles pulled to within 67-66 with 25 seconds left. Terrell got the ball from Rayjon Tucker's defensive rebound off a missed 49ers free throw and drove for the winning bucket.

Terrell scored nine points and Brandon Goodwin and Marc-Eddy Norelia scored 10 apiece for the Eagles (3-3).

Justin Bibbins' two free throws with three seconds left in the first half put the 49ers up 30-27. Terrell's free throw tied it at 60 at the end of regulation.

Gabe Levin scored 18, Temidayo Yussuf scored 15 and Bibbins had 12 for the 49ers (1-7).
