SAINT BONAVENTURE, N.Y. (AP) Mike Myers scored 19 points and Devin Martin added 17 as Maryland-Eastern Shore held on to defeat St. Bonaventure 82-80 on Monday.

The Hawks (6-8) led 45-33 at halftime before the Bonnies (7-3) stormed back behind Marcus Posley, who had 17 of his career-high 26 in the second half.

St. Bonaventure erased that deficit quickly, taking a 53-52 lead on a Posley 3-pointer with 12:57 left. But when it counted, trailing 81-80 with 24.4 seconds left after two missed free throws, the Bonnies only managed a rushed 3-pointer from the right corner. Ishaq Pitt made a free throw with four seconds left but the Bonnies had a turnover on the last possession.
