A capacity crowd packed the Kaplan Arena Saturday to watch William & Mary take on Old Dominion.

WILLIAMSBURG - On its largest stage in 17 years, William and Mary came within one extra rotation of a big chance for one of its biggest wins. A crowd of 7,216, the most to see a CAA game at Kaplan Arena, watched David Schneider's off-balance 3-point try at the buzzer circle the basket, then fall off the right side of the rim as Old Dominion held on for a 58-55 victory Saturday.

The win was the seventh in a row for ODU (16-5, 8-1 CAA), the league's stingiest defense, which held the Tribe, shooting 45.5 from the floor, to an 18-of-54 performance (33.3 percent). The loss, in front of its largest home crowd since 1993, was the second straight for William and Mary (14-5, 6-3 CAA), which had tied the best record in the 105-year history of the program with a 14-3 start.
