Box Score BALTIMORE, Md.—Senior Charlie Jackson (Arlington, Va.) scored eight of his game-high 26 points in the extra session to help No. 22 Johns Hopkins University outlast visiting Babson College 83-77 in overtime in non-conference men's basketball action on Wednesday afternoon inside Goldfarb Gymnasium. 

Babson has dropped three straight games, all to nationally-ranked foes, to slip to 6-4 on the year, while Johns Hopkins improves to 8-2 overall with its second straight win. 

First-year Thomas Ferdinando (Andover, Mass.) matched his season high with six three-pointers on the way to scoring a season-best 22 points to go along with nine rebounds and three assists for the Beavers.  Sophomore Timmy Mulvey (Reading, Mass.) finished with 17 points and four assists, classmate Logan Murphy (Sandwich, Mass.) netted all 11 of his points in the first half and first-year Robby Fiore (Acton, Mass.) chipped in with 10 points in the loss. Additionally, senior Tyler Lauder (Malvern, Pa.) led all players with 11 rebounds and four blocked shots. 

Jackson, who went 8-of-9 at the free throw line, grabbed nine boards and had a game-high six steals while leading four Blue Jays in double figures. Sophomore Wyatt Eglinton Manner (Franklin Lakes, N.J.) and junior Jeb Williams (Madison, Conn.) both scored 15 points, and senior Tanti Felli (Scottsdale, Ariz.) added 10 points on 5-of-7 shooting to go along with three steals in the victory. 

The Green and White scored on four of its first five possessions to build a quick 11-2 lead and was up 27-20 before Johns Hopkins closed the first half with a 16-7 spurt that included putting up points on seven of its final eight trips to take a 36-34 lead into the locker room. The lead changed hands five times over the first three-plus minutes of the second half and Fiore gave the Beavers a 50-43 edge at the 14:40 mark before the Blue Jays answered with a 14-4 spurt to go back in front 57-54 with 7:55 to play. 

Mulvey drained three free throws following a triple by Ferdinando as Babson regained a 61-58 lead, and Fiore buried a three-pointer from the left wing extending the margin to 64-60 with 3:56 left before Jackson scored the next seven points to give the hosts a three-point edge with 2:06 to play. The teams traded baskets over the next four possessions before Ferdinando tied it up at 71-all with 30-foot triple along the left sideline with 18 seconds remaining. 

Eglinton Manner had a chance to put Johns Hopkins ahead but his jumper in the paint bounced off the rim in the closing seconds sending the game to overtime. Mulvey answered a tip-in by Jackson with two free throws to make it 73-73 with 3:08 left in the extra session, and the Beavers trailed by just three with under a minute to play but were unable to get any closer. 

Mulvey's pull-up jumper rimmed out with 33 ticks left and Jackson went 6-of-6 at the charity stripe over the final 22 seconds to put the game away. 

The Beavers shot 50 percent from the floor and 42.9 percent from beyond the arc (12-of-28), but were just 11-of-20 from the free throw line (55 percent) and committed a season-high 21 turnovers. The Blue Jays shot 47.1 percent from the floor and scored 54 points in the point while finishing with a 37-36 edge on the glass. 

Babson returns to action next Wednesday when it hosts Clark at 6 p.m., while Johns Hopkins meets Stevenson on Saturday at 12 p.m.
