Chris Holtmann should be relieved this game is past him.
Butler made up a 10-point deficit in the closing 2:05 of regulation, then beat Ohio State 67-66 in overtime Sunday on Kelan Martin’s driving layup with 4 seconds left in the consolation final of the PK Invitational at Portland, Ore.
Martin scored 24 points and Kamar Baldwin 14 for Butler (5-2). They combined for 30 of the Bulldogs’ 44 points after halftime.
Ohio State is 5-2 under Holtmann, who was coaching Butler until mid-June.
Martin’s driving basket brought Butler within 36-32 with 14 minutes left.
