About This Game
In a first-round matchup at the neutral Amica Mutual Pavilion, Yale Bulldogs edged Baylor Bears 79-75 in a game decided by discipline and execution at the free-throw line. Yale's balanced offense—led by Makai Mason's career-high 31 points and Justin Sears's 18—proved too efficient for Baylor to overcome, despite the Bears' slight edge in field goals made (24 to 21).
The decisive factor came at the stripe: Yale converted 22 free throws to Baylor's 9, a commanding difference that reflected Baylor's foul trouble (25 fouls to Yale's 17). Yale also controlled the glass, out-rebounding Baylor 39-35, and won the battle of efficiency with a .412 field-goal percentage compared to Baylor's .353. Though Baylor committed fewer turnovers (7 to Yale's 12) and launched more three-pointers (6 to 5), Yale's resilient defense and second-chance opportunities proved the difference in a tightly contested game. This thrilling upset is captured forever in Gameprint custom wall art—every play visualized in stunning detail.
