The Bulldogs would start off the night in a big way going 10-0 before the Wildcats would score off a Karter Kennebeck bucket. The Bulldogs would pull away with the 16-4 lead going into the second quarter. The Wildcats would start to swing the momentum back to their corner as they pushed ahead in the second quarter.

The Wildcats would get closer and closer to the Bulldogs lead, cutting it down to four points at halftime with a score of 42-38.
