Tanner Van Aller contributed sixteen points, and Ryan Bechtold added another nine in support of the Knights effort, while Kalob Russell led the Falcons with thirteen points. Both teams struggled from beyond the arc, finding the basket just six times downtown. 

On the flip side, Middleburgh converted twelve of eighteen of their free throw opportunities, while Northville was held to just twelve shots - a reversal of the Knights season long struggles picking up the extra shots on offense, while limiting on defense.
