Oklahoma scene: OCU stuns Oklahoma Baptist

Charlton Jones led the balanced OCU attack with 13 points. He added six rebounds, four assists and two steals against an OBU team that was the tournament's second seed. OBU (24-7) is out of the tournament and will have to wait for a possible at-large bid to the NAIA Championships. The winner of the SAC Tournament earns an automatic bid to nationals.

Chase Adams, who missed back-to-back 3-point attempts in the waning seconds, led OBU with 18 points.

*The University of Science & Arts of Oklahoma remained alive in the postseason, trimming Lubbock Christian 66-63 in a first-round Sooner Athletic Conference Tournament men's game at Shawnee. USAO (17-8) had 14 points each from Brandon Cutler and Dejuan Lofton. Cutler had a game-high 10 rebounds. Lubbock Christian (15-14) had 14 points from Tyler Kennedy.

*John Brown (Ark.) was deadly from 3-point range in its 71-56 rout of St. Gregory's. Abel Galliguez was 6 for 6 from 3-point territory; the Eagles (26-5) made a season-high 16 treys. Fayzon Richey, who finished his college career with more than 2,000 points, had 17 points for St. Gregory's (7-21).
