After a season-opening loss in New York, Swarthmore was in deep danger of leaving the Big Apple winless.
That is, until Vinny DeAngelo intervened.
The Sun Valley All-Delco hit a buzzer-beating 3-pointer to help the 11th-ranked Garnet to a most improbable 71-70 win over host NYU. The Garnet trailed the ninth-ranked Violets by 13 points with less than eight minutes to play and by four with 12 seconds remaining.
But Nyle Coleman hit a layup with six seconds left. Michael Caprise fouled Michael Savarino with four seconds left, and Savarino missed the front end of a one-and-one.
Devin Burger corralled the rebound and fed DeAngelo, who banked home a 26-footer from the right wing.
Caprise scored 19 points to go with 10 rebounds for the Garnet, who opened the season with a loss to No. 22 Washington University of St. Louis. DeAngelo and Eddie Paquette scored 11 points each, Paquette adding seven boards. Coleman supplied 10 points off the bench.
Manhattanville 52, Neumann 51 >> Jalen Vaughns scored a game-high 26 points, but Andrew Saint-Louis’ 3-pointer with four seconds left gave the host Valiants the win.
TJ Lewis added 12 points. Neumann shot just 35.2 percent from the field (19-for-54).
Lucy Olsen scored 24 points, but a cold shooting night meant Villanova couldn’t escape Corvallis with a win in a tight 63-56 loss to Oregon State.
Olsen added six rebounds and three steals. But the Wildcats (1-1) shot just 2-for-17 from 3-point range (11.8 percent), lacking the critical edge to rally in a game that featured eight ties and six lead changes.
Yet still, Nova led 52-50 when Olsen hit a jumper with 3:12 left in the fourth. They wouldn’t score until an Olsen layup with 29 seconds left, cutting into a deficit that had grown to seven. Olsen missed a pair of free throws in that barren patch, and the Wildcats missed two 3-pointers.
Maddie Burke chipped in nine points. Christina Dalce had eight points and seven boards. Bella Runyan paired four points with four assists and nine boards, though Nova was outrebounded, 46-32.
Raegan Beers led Oregon State with 20 points and 14 rebounds. Kelsey Rees and Talia von Oelhoffen scored 11 points each.
Neumann 64, Lancaster Bible 56 >> Lauren Klieber went off for 27 points and grabbed nine rebounds as the Knights are off to a 3-0 start.
Aubrie Breisblatt paired 15 points with seven rebounds. Terea Tourk scored just four points but blocked seven shots and grabbed nine rebounds.
