NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The Illinois State Redbirds saw six players reach double-figure scoring, including a team-high 17 points from Caden Boser off the bench; however, Carter Whitt made a fallaway jumper as time expired, and the Belmont Bruins topped ISU 99-97 in overtime in the MVC opener for each squad

Illinois State's 18 made three-pointers are the second-highest single-game total in school history, behind only the 20 the team connected on against Trinity Christian earlier this season.
