After St. Joe’s tied the game at 62-62 on Brendan Scanlon’s shot with 15 seconds left, the Rovers called a timeout with 9.4 seconds remaining and Wood was fouled in a two-shot bonus situation for game-winning points.

Alec Freemer led the Rovers with 27 points, 20 of them coming in the first half when the Rovers opened the game with a 14-0 lead. Brockway led 41-25 by halftime, but was outscored 20-10 in the third quarter and trailed 57-53 midway through the fourth quarter.
