The Skyhawks used defense to get back in the game after halftime. College Park cut the lead down to 7 late in the third quarter but Motor City gained the momentum back.

Motor City led by as much as 19. The Skyhawks were able to hold it within a 10-15 point margin, but ultimately there were too many trade buckets when College Park needed stops.

Cat Barber finished with 40 points, a season, and career-high. Barber’s 40 points set a new College Park Skyhawk record.
