The University of Rochester swept two overtime games from Washington U. and the men's team gained a share of first place in the UAA standings in the process.

The No. 3 Yellowjacket men needed buzzer beaters in both halves and two four-point plays from Rob Dominiak to force overtime, then held off the No. 1 Bears 73-70 in front of a packed house. The loss ended Wash U's 12-game winning streak. Dominiak finished with 21 points, including 5-for-7 shooting from three-point range, and Uche Ndbuizu added 20 for the Yellowjackets (16-1).

"We're not going to take a whole lot of credit," Rochester coach Mike Neer said after the game. "We got one on our home court. We've got to go to St. Louis and do it again. But more importantly, we've got to do this again Sunday (against Chicago)."
