ATHENS — Cameron Rundles made both ends of a 1-and-1 with 3.1 seconds remaining to give Wofford a stunning 60-57 victory against Georgia on Tuesday.

A desperation 3-pointer at the buzzer by Georgia’s Trey Thompkins near the Bulldogs bench was no good, as the Terriers posted their first victory over Georgia in eight tries and sending new coach Mark Fox — hired to take over for Dennis Felton, who was fired at then end of last season — to a surprising 1-1 start..

Georgia was led by Travis Leslie, who had 17 points, and Thompkins followed with 14 points. They were the only Bulldogs in double digits.

After trailing in the early minutes, Wofford took the lead with 12:40 remaining in the first half. Although Georgia got within one point on several occasions, the Bulldogs could not catch the Terriers.
