They boasted a 61 percent shooting percentage from the floor and rode that to a 62-39 halftime lead. Dylan Gray and Reno Dupor combined for 19 of the 39 first half points for the Eagles. Ozarks was able to collect themselves and came out ready to play in the second half. Gray spearheaded the charge with 22 of his 32 points coming in the final frame. The Eagles were never quite able to pull themselves out of the hole after the first half. They were however, able to trim the lead to as little as 10 with 3:12 to play off a Joey Hall and-one layup. The comeback fell just a little short as LeTourneau pulled out the win, 107-96.
