BALTIMORE (AP) -- Dylon Cormier scored 20 points, including 12 of 12 from the free-throw line and Loyola (Md.) made its Patriot League debut Thursday night by defeating Navy in overtime 63-57.

Denzel Brito hit a 3-pointer with 38 seconds left in overtime to put the Greyhounds up five. It was his first 3-pointer since Dec. 2 against West Virginia.

Jarred Jones blocked a 3-point attempt by Navy's Zack Fong with 12 seconds left. Jones was fouled, hit both free throws and Loyola snapped a four-game losing streak.

Thurgood Wood scored 15 points and Brandon Venturini 11 for the Midshipmen (5-7).
