MURRAY, Ky. (AP) - Isacc Miles hit a buzzer-beating jumper, lifting Murray State to a 65-63 win over Austin Peay on Saturday night.

After John Fraley's two free throws pulled Austin Peay even at 63 with 4 seconds left, Miles nailed his chance for the game winner as the clock ran to zero.

Austin Peay's previous foul shots, both made by Anthony Campbell, put the Governors ahead 61-58 with just under 3 minutes left. But Miles went on a tear, scoring every point in a 5-0 Murray State (22-3, 13-0 Ohio Valley Conference) run for a 63-61 lead that set the stage for the dramatic final seconds.

Miles finished with seven points, all in the game's final 2 minutes.

Danero Thomas scored 23 points and grabbed 11 boards to lead the
Racers, who extended the nation's second-longest winning streak to 13 games.

Campbell scored 20 points for the Governors (14-11, 8-5).
