Jeff Allen canned a free throw with 12.4 seconds left and the Hokies survived as last-second Maryland 3-point attempt to notch a hard-fought 67-66 Atlantic Coast Conference victory over the Terrapins at Cassell Coliseum on Saturday afternoon. With the win, Tech has now registered victories in four of its past five games, moving to 10-6 overall, 1-1 in the league, on the season. Maryland (10-7, 1-1 ACC), played without starting guard Eric Hayes (injured ankle). The Hokies trailed by five points with 1:45 left after Maryland’s Bombale Osby made the first of two free- throw attempts. But Tech shut Maryland out the rest of the game and scored the final six points. With the score tied at 66, a wide-open Allen got the ball in the post from teammate A.D. Vassallo, and Osby fouled him with 12.4 ticks to go to keep Allen from scoring. Following a timeout, Allen - a 69.4 percent free- throw shooter coming into the game - made the first one to give Tech a 67-66 lead, but missed the second. After a mad scramble for the rebound, the Terrapins got the ball and called a timeout with nine seconds remaining. Terp point guard Greivis Vasquez brought the ball down the court, got a screen from James Gist, and launched an off-balance 3-pointer that was heavily challenged by Tech’s Deron Washington. The ball bounced wildly off the rim and the Hokies pulled down the rebound as time expired, preserving the win. The great defensive play capped a tremendousrally. Trailing 66-61, the Hokies cut the Maryland lead to 66- 63 on a short jumper by point guard Hank Thorns with 1:32 to go. After Gist missed a contested lay-up on the Terps’ next possession, the Hokies pushed the ball up the court and Thorns passed up a shot, making instead a nice pass to Delaney, who drilled a 3-pointer from the wing to tie the game with 52 seconds left.
