The Quinnipiac men’s basketball team took a late lead against in-state rival Fairfield Friday night. But with .1 seconds left, Stags star Tyler Nelson made a game-tying layup to for overtime. In the extra session, Quinnipiac was on its heels. Despite the slow start, Peter Kiss had a wide open 30-footer with a few seconds left but his prayer missed wide right.
