(AP) -- Jason Clark hit three 3-pointers in overtime, lifting No. 16 Georgetown to a bruising 111-102 victory Tuesday night over No. 9 Missouri, which erased an 18-point halftime deficit but faltered at the free throw line in the final seconds of regulation.
After Michael Dixon hit only one of two foul shots with 14.1 seconds left to give Missouri a 94-91 lead, Chris Wright's 3-pointer tied the matchup of unbeatens at 94-all.
Austin Freeman had 31 points for the Hoyas (7-0), who have won their first seven games for the second consecutive season. Missouri (5-1) trailed throughout the game until Marcus Denmon canned a 3-pointer for a 77-75 lead that had the capacity crowd in Kansas City's Sprint Center roaring.
Denmon had 27 points for Missouri, which missed three of four free throws in the final 19 seconds of regulation. The Hoyas were 18 of 18 from the line.
