From Saint Mary's Blog:

In the final game of their Australian tour, the Gaels lost a heartbreaker at the buzzer 85-84 to the Gold Coast Blaze of the NBL. Leading 84-83 with less than 10 seconds remaining and the shot clock about to expire, Omar Samhan missed a short jumper in the lane. The Blaze's Chris Goulding went end to end and missed a tough lay-up, but it was tipped in at the buzzer by the Blaze's Anthony Petrie.

The last second basket spoiled what would have been a great team win for the Gaels, who played their best basketball in the final game of the tour. They were once again led by Omar Samhan's 21 points and 11 rebounds. Wayne Hunter added 20 points, including 3 of 4 from 3-point range. Ben Allen pulled down a team-high 18 rebounds to go along with 15 points. Mickey McConnell contributed 15 points and five assists. Trey Anderson was the 5th Gael in double figures with 12 points.

For the trip, Omar Samhan averaged 19 points and 12 rebounds and Mickey McConnell averaged 17 points and six assists. Ben Allen averaged a team-high 14 rebounds per game.
