Men's Basketball: Florida Atlantic Wins in Overtime Thriller

Florida Atlantic men's basketball team bounced back with an 83-78 win in an overtime thriller against Boston College on Monday night.

Guard Yohann Sissoko was the hero, nailing a game-saving three-pointer to seal the Owls' first win of the season.

The game was played in front of a sold-out Eleanor R. Baldwin Arena, marking the third time a power conference opponent has played at "The Elly" in four years.

"I don't know that this [game] was pretty, maybe that's just part of it, but what our guys did show is some real fight and resolve," said head coach John Jakus.
