CLINTON, S.C. (AP) —

The finish was set up when freshman Rayshon Harrison, who scored a career-high 31 points for the Blue Hose, made 1 of 2 from the foul line with 16 seconds to go.

Fleming, who was 1 of 9 behind the arc at that point, got the ball on the wing, probed for an opening to the basket before pulling up well behind the arc, and scoring over the out-stretched arms of Brandon Younger with 0.2 seconds left.

Ja’Quavian Florence scored a season-high 22 points and had 10 rebounds for Charleston Southern (3-18, 2-15 Big South Conference). Sadarius Bowser added 13 points.
