UNC Wilmington broke open a close game with a 16-2 run early in the second half, including a pair of 3-pointers by Flemmings, to led 55-42 midway through the second half.
Northeastern made a furious charge late, coming from 10 down with 1:14 left to trail by one after Quincy Ford's tip-in with 14 seconds to go. Denzel Ingram (14 points) made a pair of free throws with 10 seconds left, and Flemmings added one more with one second left to ice it.
