From there, neither team held a lead as much as two points as four lead changes occurred in the final four minutes.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\"><span style=\"font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;\">The Patriots took the final lead of the game on a layup by Amari Kelly off an airball from Keyshawn Hall right before the shot-clock buzzer to give Mason a 60-58 lead with 24.2 seconds remaining.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\"><span style=\"font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;\">On the final possession for the Rams, Rose missed a three from the right wing, but teammate Antrell Charlton forced a jump ball on the rebound which gave the Rams the ball back on the possession arrow. Charlton then turned provider, with his inbounds pass going to rose before the latter nailed the three to give Fordham its sixth A-10 win of the season.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\"><span style=\"font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;\">Hall scored 15 points to lead the Patriots, who have lost two straight after their upset of then No. 16 Dayton, 71-67, last Wednesday.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><em><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\"><span style=\"font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;\">*Editor&#8217;s note: Above the byline is the photo gallery from Tuesday evening&#8217;s game, with all photos taken by ALOST senior photographer Robert Cole.
