BALTIMORE (AP) -Boubacar Coly scored 18 points and grabbed 15 rebounds as Morgan State hung on for a 66-62 overtime victory against Hampton.
Hampton took its first lead of the game eight seconds into overtime on a three-pointer by Matthew Pilgrim.
But Jerrell Green scored nine of his 13 points in the extra session and Morgan State made five free throws in the final 47 seconds. Green added five assists, while Marquise Kately finished with 13 points and 10 rebounds for Morgan State (18-9, 12-2 Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference).
Hampton (15-11, 8-5) scored eight of the first 11 points of the second half, and cut the Morgan State lead to just four at 33-29 after a layup by Donte Harrison with 14:19 left.
The teams traded baskets over the next 13 minutes, before the Pirates finally tied the game at 50-50 with 1:15 remaining on a layup by Pilgrim. The Pirates had a chance to take the lead about 30 seconds later after a Morgan State turnover, but Adrian Woodard was called for a travel with 16 seconds remaining and the Bears couldn't get a shot off.
Morgan State forced Hampton to miss 15 of its first 17 shots, but couldn't find an offensive rhythm of its own. Morgan State shot just 29 percent in the first half, but the Pirates were worse, shooting a meager 22.2 percent and trailed 30-21 at intermission.
Hampton's Rashad West finished with 19 points and five rebounds, while Pilgrim had 11 points and seven rebounds.
