🔼 Blazed ‘Em. With under a second left on the clock, Thomas Dowd banked in a putback layup at the buzzer to lift Troy to a gutsy road win over UAB, 86-85, on Sunday afternoon.

Dowd had missed the front end of a one-and-one moments earlier, a chance for Troy to extend its lead to three with 12 seconds remaining. 

Victor Valdes capped off his dominant week with a 26-point, five assist, three rebound, three steal performance to lead the way for Troy. Cooper Campbell was outstanding, finishing one assist shy of a double-double with 14 points and nine assists.

Today’s Trojan Top Performance, brought to you by Conecuh Sausage, is, junior Thomas Dowd, who provided the heroics in Sunday’s thrilling road win at UAB. Dowd’s putback layup as time expired gave the Trojans the win and capped off his day, which finished with 11 points and six rebounds, but none bigger than the final rebound and final two points.
