In the final 10 minutes, ERAU was outscored 25-10, and Westcliff found its shooting touch down the stretch.

Embry-Riddle led by seven with 6:39 remaining in regulation, but Westcliff went on a 13-2 run to take a four-point lead. While the Eagles would get back within two points with 38 seconds to play, but Westcliff would eventually take away the six-point final.
