The game of the night took place in Milwaukee, where South Dakota outlasted Wisconsin-Milwaukee 92-91 in double overtime. Wisconsin native Tre Burnette scored the go-ahead basket for the Coyotes with 1.2 seconds left in the second OT and then blocked a final UWM shot attempt at the buzzer. Counting a win over Minnesota 12 days earlier, that’s two 2-OT wins for USD in its last four games.
