AMHERST, Mass. (AP) Cady Lalanne had 18 points, Trey Davis scored 15 including two free throws with 15 seconds left and Massachusetts beat Dayton 66-64 on Thursday night.
Davis' free throws gave UMass (11-9, 4-3 Atlantic 10) a 66-61 lead and Dayton's Darrell Davis hit a 3-pointer with 3.9 seconds left. Play was stopped for a few minutes after Trey Davis blasted head-first into a screen at midcourt and needed to be helped off the court.
Donte Clark then missed the front end of a 1-and-1 for UMass with 2.1 seconds left and Jabarie Hinds sealed the win, blocking Kendall Pollard's desperation heave.
