In the best game of the game at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, St. Peter’s N.J. ousted the Kentucky Wildcats 85 to 79 in overtime.

St. Peter’s never let the Wildcats gain an advantage in the game, though the Cats tried. The Peacocks fought for every loose ball, broke hard off of screens and came clean and posted a very big win.

Daryl Banks III kept the Peacocks ahead in the game early with his clutch shooting while Doug Edert came alive late in regulation and in overtime to clinch the victory.
