Illinois State built a 16 point lead early in the 2nd half, then SIU came back to take the lead. Then it was tied when Phil Fayne made 1 of 2 free throws to take a 59-58 lead with 5.7 seconds left. SIU then turned the ball over on their final possession and never got a shot, and ISU wins 59-58. ISU goes to 3-2, while SIU falls to 2-3 in the MVC-
