PRINCETON, N.J. (AP) Jerome Desrosiers' 3-pointer with 36 seconds left in overtime provided the winning points in Princeton's 76-73 victory over Yale on Friday.

After Desrosiers' trey, Yale missed consecutive 3-point shots and fouled Amir Bell, who missed the front end of a one-and-one. The teams exchanged turnovers before a desperation 3-point try by Yale missed.

Yale took possession after a tie-up in regulation but Trey Phills was unable to connect on a 3-pointer as the game went to overtime.

Myles Stephens scored 18 points and Devin Cannady and Bell 16 apiece for the Tigers (11-8, 3-1 Ivy), who have won three straight, with Bell collecting a career-high 11 rebounds for his first career double-double.
