Watervliet led after the first quarter, 18-12, before outscoring Lawton, 14-6, in the second quarter, pushing their lead to 32-18 at the half. The second half saw the Blue Devils attempt a comeback, cutting their deficit to 47-36 after three quarters, but the Panthers closed it out in the final stanza after a 23-19 scoring burst.
