PHILADELPHIA -- Tramaine Isabell scored 21 points and made the game-winning free throw with a second left to lead Drexel past Northeastern 68-67 on Saturday.

Northeastern led 67-61 after Tomas Murphy hit a jumper with 2:20 left, but the Huskies never scored again and missed their last three shots from the field and three free throws. Vasa Pusica missed a 3-point heave at the buzzer.

Isabell made half his eight attempts from the foul line in the final 1:53. With two seconds left he made the first of two free throws to tie it. He missed the second but grabbed the offensive rebound, Bolden Brace fouled Isabell and he went back to the line and made 1 of 2 to win it. Austin Williams made a layup and Troy Harper added a free throw during Drexel's late 7-0 run.

Williams and Sammy Mojica each scored 13 and Williams had 11 rebounds for Drexel (9-14, 3-7 Colonial Athletic Association).
