contents Fusion excitation functions for $^{19}$O and $^{19}$F + $^{12}$C were simultaneously measured along with $^{20}$O + $^{12}$C using the active-target detector MuSIC@Indiana. Examination of the cross-section just above the barrier reveals a significant suppression of fusion for the $^{19}$O + $^{12}$C system at E$_{c.m.}$~12 MeV. This suppression may be due to the formation of a transient $^{18}$O-n-$^{12}$C molecule-like complex favored at a particular angular momentum. Mean-field level models are used as a reference to understand the measured fusion excitation functions.
