No. 15 seed St. Peters knocked off the No. 2 seed Kentucky Wildcats 85-79.
Saint Peter’s coach Shaheen Holloway stood on the sideline with his arms crossed and showed no emotion as guard Matthew Lee made two free throws to give the Peacocks a four-point lead over Kentucky with 20 seconds left in overtime of their first-round game in the NCAA tournament.
“Proud of my guys for battling, like we do all year,” Holloway said. “This is something that these guys understand, no disrespect to anybody, but we wasn’t coming down here just to lose. We came down here to fight and we did.”
