The visiting George Mason Patriots topped the St. Louis University Billikens 76-74 in overtime on Tuesday night. The Billikens came back from multiple 10-point deficits in the second half, and a three-pointer from well beyond the three-point arc from Isaiah Swope tied the game with 1.7 seconds left. George Mason held the Billikens to 1-6 shooting in OT to seal the game.

The Billikens were led by junior center Robbie Avila with a game-high-tying 27 points. Senior guard Isaiah Swope added 22 points. Junior forward Kalu Anya pulled down a game-high 15 rebounds.
