MILWAUKEE – For the second straight game the Edgewood College men’s basketball team went into overtime, but tonight the Eagles came out on the losing end falling to Milwaukee School of Engineering 64-58 from the Kern Center.

Following 13 lead changes and seven ties in the second half, the Raiders (7-11, 2-5 LMC) held Edgewood (11-8, 5-2 LMC) scoreless for the final two minutes of overtime, outscoring the Eagles 11-5 in the extra period. MSOE’s Jeff Mikos led the Raiders with a triple-double. Mikos scored 11 points to go along with 10 rebounds and 11 assists. Mikos also had six of his team’s 10 steals.

With the Raiders down by a pair, Scott Murphy’s layup with 14 seconds remaining in regulation knotted the score at 53-53.
