Northern Kentucky men’s basketball fell in overtime at Eastern Kentucky on Saturday.
The Norse fought back from a second half deficit to send the game into an extra period, but the Colonels pulled away.
With the loss, the Norse fall to 4-6 on the season.
Marques Warrick led NKU with 22 points while Bryson Langdon scored a season-high 13, and Trevon Faulkner added 11, seven of which came from the free throw line.
Eastern went on an 11-2 run in the overtime period to create a distance from NKU and ultimately prevailed, 81=68.
NKU is back on the floor Wednesday night at Indiana (9-2).
Then the Norse have a five-game homestand in Horizon League play, starting December 30 against Green Bay at 7 p.m.
