FAYETTEVILLE — In Trevon Brazile’s first season at the University of Arkansas after transferring from Missouri, the 6-10 sophomore has gotten national attention soaring above the rim for highlight dunks.
But it was Brazile’s dive on the court at the Lahaina (Hawaii) Civic Center on Wednesday night that helped the No. 9 Razorbacks come back to beat No. 17 San Diego State 78-74 in overtime in the third-place game of the Maui Invitational.
The Aztecs led 67-65 with 13 seconds left after Arkansas freshman point guard Anthony Black made two free throws.
San Diego State junior guard Lamont Bradley got the inbounds pass and was trapped by Brazile and Black.
