Dylan Osetkowksi's putback with 15 seconds left -- and then subsequent defensive stop -- keyed Tulane (3-3 record in 2015-16) to a 60-59 come-from-behind win over Stephen F. Austin on Friday in the Challenge of Music City tourney in Nashville.
The follow-up shot was the only bucket of the night for the 6-9 Osetkowski (three points), but it capped a Tulane second-half furious comeback from a double-digit second-half deficit.
Senior guard Louis Dabney and freshman guard Kain Harris notched 14 points apiece for the winners, while Jernard Jarreau added nine points and 10 boards for Tulane. Clide Geffrard had a game-high 20 points and eight rebounds in a losing effort for Stephen F. Austin (2-3 mark in 2015-16).
Osetkowski's late-game heroics moved Tulane back to the .500 mark and continued a disturbing lose-one, then-win-one trend this season for the Green Wave.
The Green Wave will try to build its first winning streak of the season when the Challenge of Music City tournament concludes with a Nov. 29 contest in Nashville vs. Liberty.
