NORFOLK, Va. -- Freshman forward Holton Freeman (Asheville, N.C./Carolina Day) hit a three-pointer with five seconds remaining to lift Washington and Lee to a 57-55 win over Virginia Wesleyan in ODAC men's basketball action on Sunday afternoon.

The Generals (3-4, 1-1) led by seven points (51-44) with 4:17 remaining in the game; however, the Marlins fought back to take a one-point lead (55-54) when junior forward Donnell Hammonds hit the front-end of a one-and-one with 17 seconds remaining. Hammonds second foul shot was rebounded by freshman center Mark Franceski (Moscow, Pa./North Pocono) setting up Freeman's heroics. Franceski then intercepted a VWC pass in the final seconds and ran out the clock to preserve the victory.

Washington and Lee was led by junior guard John Warren (Greenville, S.C./Wade Hampton), who scored a career-high 15 points on 6-of-8 shooting. Freeman totaled a career-high 14 points, hitting 3-of-4 three-point attempts.

Virginia Wesleyan (3-3, 2-1) was led by senior guard James Wallace, who scored 17 points on 5-of-6 shooting from beyond the arc. Sophomore forward David Doino totaled 15 points and six rebounds.

The Generals committed just 10 turnovers in the game and shot 51.2 percent (22-43) from the floor.
