CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. -- Terry Taylor scored 19 points, converting a tie-breaking 3-point play with 31.4 seconds left, Averyl Ugba followed with a key block and Austin Peay defeated Eastern Kentucky 90-84 on Thursday night.

The Governors (11-10, 6-3 Ohio Valley Conference) had six players in double figures. Steve Harris had 15 off the bench on 6-of-8 shooting and Ugba had 13 with nine rebounds.
Dedric Boyd had 27 points for Eastern Kentucky (8-14, 2-7).
