After an and-one layup . . .
The Falcons proceeded to foul OU's Ben Roderick with 19 seconds remaining in the ballgame. When he missed the one-and-one opportunity, Turner grabbed the rebound, glided into the front court, and hit a step-back jumper near the top of the key to give the Falcons the victory. Ohio was not able to get a shot off as time expired.
