SUMMARY:

  • 1H - Deon Perry gave Barry their first lead of the game making his signature mid-range jumper from the free throw line. Jose Benitez followed with the next bucket picking up the steal and driving in for a lay-up for a 4-0 advantage. Barry held the lead for a majority of the half, Florida Southern took their first lead of the game at the 4:44 mark, erasing as much as an 11-point deficit. The Mocs made the final bucket of the first 20-minutes to take a two-point lead into the break. Barry shot better from the field at 51.5 to Florida Southern's 48.6. Perry had 15 points for the half going 6-for-9 from the field. | FSC 43, Barry 41
    2H – Marko Šarenac quickly tied the game back up with the first basket on the second half. Breno Silva knocked down a huge and-one drilling a deep-three and hitting the free throw so that the Bucs can regain the lead for the first time since the first half. It was coming down to the wire as neither team took more than a three-point lead with 6:29 remaining. A 7-2 run with three minutes left in the game would be the difference maker. Barry had a late opportunity but was unable to capitalize, Ryan Van Eyck hit a buzzer beater to end the game but would just cut the deficit from five to two in the final score. Sarenac had nearly a double-double in the half with 14 points and nine rebounds. Both teams scored 41 points in the half. | FSC 84, Barry 82
