Box Score GAFFNEY S.C. – Limestone College and the Royals last met in the first round of the 2011 NCAA Division II Tournament where the Queens University of Charlotte defeated the Saints 70-67 after putting together a 19-6 run in the final minutes. Fast forward to tonight's game at Timken Center against the Saints, and one would believe they had déjà vu as the Royals more than doubled Limestone's points in the final 11-minutes and 15-seconds of play to come back from 14 down and win 62-59.

Queens (8-5) remains undefeated in conference play at 3-0, while Limestone (7-9, 0-4) is still in search of its first league win after falling tonight.

Senior guard Daniel Bailey (Irmo, S.C., Hammond ) scored a runner to begin Queens' run. Junior forward Antonio Stabler (Garner, N.C., Wakefield) soon followed with a bucket of his own before coming up with a huge block on the defensive end. At that point, with the Royals down 47-37, Sean Eads (Greenville, S.C., Eastside) capped a 9-0 Queens run with five straight points.

Limestone's Josh Corry would put the Saints back up by eight with a three ball on the very next play, but the Royals kept pushing. Queens found itself down by one point, 51-50, after knocking down seven points in a row from the foul line. Stabler put the Royals ahead for the first time in the game, 56-55, with 1:51 to play icing two shots from the line after back-to-back buckets from Bailey. His free-throws were followed by two more from Eads making the score 58-55 with a minute left in regulation.

With time ticking away, the Saints were forced to resort to desperation fouls sending Queens to the charity stripe. The Royals were able to connect on 6-8 shots from the line to clinch the victory.
