Princeton (17-4, 5-0 Ivy League) led by 13 at 48-35 with 8:44 to go, but the Quakers (9-10, 3-2 Ivy) tied it at 56 on a Tyler Bernardini three-pointer.

After Penn took a 59-56 lead in overtime, Ian Hummer made a layup with 45 seconds left and Douglas Davis hit one of two free throws to tie it with 16 seconds to go. Hummer's two foul shots three seconds later made it 61-59.

Penn's Fran Dougherty missed a layup with six seconds left and Mavraides rebounded, then made the first of two foul shots. Zack Rosen pulled down the rebound, but missed a three-pointer at the buzzer.

Mavraides, Davis, Patrick Saunders and Mack Darrow scored 11 apiece while Hummer had 11 rebounds.

Bernardini's 19 points led the Quakers.
