In the second half, the Tigers stormed back to tie the game, only to see the Lightning regain and then extend their lead to 63-54 with 6:03 on the clock.  However, a Tigers 16-4 run over the final 5:38, sent the visitors home with loss 70-67.  Both teams shot well, (GBC 50%, HFU 47%) and finished virtually even in the rebounding department (HFU 28, GBC 26), but the major difference came at the free-throw line.  The Tigers made 22 of 27, compared to the Lightning's 12-of-16.
