Gwynedd dominated the paint, outrebounding the Highlanders, 38-23, and scoring of their 50 points down low. Goodman pulled down nine boards and Elleby snared six to lead the rebounding brigade.

Cairn would get out to a six-point lead on two occasions early in the first. Julian Collazo's field goal gave the Highlanders a 21-15 lead at the 10:59 mark. GMercyU responded with an 11-0 run in which they would go ahead for good. Jones' putback off a miss underneath gave GM a 26-21 edge. The lead would stretch to as much as 10 after a three from Goodman with 4:20 in the stanza. Gwynedd would lead 41-35 at the break.

Goodman's bucket in the early stages of the second upped the lead back to double figures to which Cairn could not come back from.

After shooting 17-of-34 in the first, the team would go 16-of-29 (55.2%) in the second. The squad connected on seven triples, three of which came from Engel.
