Babson Park, FL – The Webber International Men's Basketball team dropped a hard-fought, one-possession decision to Goshen (IN), 69-68, in overtime Tuesday afternoon in Babson Park. Webber led by as many as 11 late in the first half and took a 33-22 advantage into the break, but Goshen answered with a 37-26 second half to force extra time tied at 59. In the overtime period, the Maple Leafs edged the Warriors 10-9 to escape with the win.

Deon Brown powered Webber offensively with 21 points, knocking down five 3-pointers while playing 42 minutes, and he added three assists and four rebounds.
