SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif. (AP) Reese Morgan scored 15 points and made six free throws in the final 25 seconds to help Cal Poly hold off UC Davis 58-53 on Thursday night.

Josh Martin scored 11 and grabbed 10 rebounds for the Mustangs (10-15, 4-8 Big West), who outrebounded the Aggies 46-26.

Siler Schneider scored seven for the Aggies, bringing his season total to 241, a school Division 1 scoring record for a true freshman.

Trailing by three at halftime, the Aggies twice rallied to lead by two in the second half, but the Mustangs pulled ahead for good 33-30 on Luke Meikle's 3-pointer.

Darius Graham's 3-pointer with 10 seconds left pulled the Aggies within 56-53, then he fouled Morgan, who made both free throws to seal it. The Aggies missed two field goals in the final seconds.
