Cougars fall short on Jackrabbits’ game-winning 3

South Dakota State’s Baylor Scheierman hit a game-winning three over Andrej Jakimovski at the buzzer to give the Jackrabbits a 77-74 win against the Washington State Cougars on Saturday.

The Cougars (7-3, 1-1 in Pac-12) came up with a steal and knocked down a pair of free throws to tie the game with 23 seconds to play. This after trailing by as many as 10 points just six minutes prior. That left South Dakota State (9-3) one last chance with the shot clock turned off. Scheierman drove to his left on a step-back and hit a high-arcing three after Jakimovski slipped and fell to the floor.
