HIGH POINT, N.C. -- Carlik Jones scored six of his 14 points after regulation, including the winning jumper as time expired, and Radford beat High Point 78-76 in overtime on Wednesday night.
Randy Phillips made a layup and Jones followed with a jumper to give Radford (14-8, 7-2 Big South) a 74-71 lead with 1:51 left in OT, but Andre Fox tied it on a 3-point play 11 seconds later. After Jones hit two free throws, Denny Slay's jumper made it 76-all with 48 seconds to go.
