NEW YORK -- Joseph Chartouny scored 21 points and had tied his career high with 11 rebounds and Fordham beat Maine 67-66 in overtime on Saturday.
Prokop Slanina and Will Tavares each added 15 points for Fordham (3-4) now winners of two of its last three. Maine (1-7) has lost two straight.
Ilker Er tied the game at 60 with 42 seconds to play in regulation. Chartouny missed a jumper with 19 seconds to play, Perris Hicks missed a 3 at the buzzer and Maine never got another shot off after Er's jumper.
