Facing a really strange river check/shove...

This happened in the 109 Bounty Builder. No reads or notes on Villain. I was playing on a more aggressive style early on today, hence a wider than normal open (for me at least).

PokerStars - $50+$50+$9|45/90 Ante 14 NL - Holdem - 9 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4: http://www.pokertracker.com

UTG+1: 51.16 BB (VPIP: 20.00, PFR: 5.00, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 20)
MP: 55.42 BB (VPIP: 50.00, PFR: 50.00, 3Bet Preflop: -, Hands: 2)
MP+1: 48.36 BB (VPIP: 17.86, PFR: 15.18, 3Bet Preflop: 1.92, Hands: 112)
MP+2: 15.46 BB (VPIP: 16.67, PFR: 13.10, 3Bet Preflop: 6.06, Hands: 86)
CO: 65.96 BB (VPIP: 25.00, PFR: 7.14, 3Bet Preflop: 6.67, Hands: 28)
BTN: 138.33 BB (VPIP: 14.29, PFR: 10.71, 3Bet Preflop: 7.69, Hands: 28)
SB: 60.47 BB (VPIP: 18.46, PFR: 12.90, 3Bet Preflop: 7.69, Hands: 65)
BB: 86.59 BB (VPIP: 40.00, PFR: 40.00, 3Bet Preflop: -, Hands: 5)
Hero (UTG): 102.79 BB

9 players post ante of 0.16 BB, SB posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 2.9 BB) Hero has As 3s
Hero raises to 2.44 BB, fold, fold, fold, fold, fold, fold, fold, BB calls 1.44 BB

Flop : (6.79 BB, 2 players) 9d 4c 5s
BB checks, Hero checks

Turn : (6.79 BB, 2 players) 2s
BB bets 4 BB, Hero calls 4 BB

River : (14.79 BB, 2 players) 7h
BB checks, Hero bets 10.64 BB, BB raises to 79.99 BB and is all-in, Hero ???

We obviously have a healthy stack size in relation to the table, and even when we fold we are still 85bb deep. Can/should we just fold? I can't expect we are going to find better spots, and we lose to two hands - 36 and 68. I would think some V's do this with sets and two pairs maybe? Not really sure. Not a situation I run into a lot, except for seemingly every tournament I played today.

Anyone have an resources or video's they've seen that talks about this over shove trend that's starting to occur lately? It's been putting me in a lot of awkward spots, and it's something I want to get into my game but want to make sure I understand the spots to use it properly.
