EVANSVILLE, Ind. (AP) -Shy Ely scored 29 points, nine of them on free throws in the final 1:08, as Evansville hung on to beat Creighton 60-56 in the Missouri Valley Conference on Wednesday night.
The Purple Aces (8-16, 3-11 MVC) were a disappointing 13-of-43 (30.2 percent) from the field, but they shone at the free-throw line, where they went 30-of-32 (93.8 percent).
Creighton (17-7, 8-6) led 50-49 with 1:35 left on a jumper by Booker Woodfox, who finished with 12 points. Then the Bluejays' Dane Watts fouled Ely, who tied the score at 50 on his first shot and gave Evansville a one-point lead with the second. The Purple Aces then stretched their lead on a series of free throws.
Nick Bahe, who finished with 17 for Creighton, sank a 3-pointer with 26 seconds left to make it 55-53, but Ely made three more free throws to make the score 58-53. Another Bahe 3 drew the Bluejays to within two, but Bahe then fouled Dann Granger who made the final points on free throws.
The Bluejays outrebounded the Purple Aces 34-28.
Kavon Lacey had 12 for Evansville.
P'Allen Stinnett finished with 14 for Creighton, and Cavel Witter had eight assists for the Bluejays.
