Senior guard Brandon Wright gave the Fleet an early 9 to 3 lead when he made his third basket on the night on a baseline reserve layup.  Unfortunately, the Fleet offense would struggle to find a rhythm the reminder of the first half allowing Limestone to take a 38 to 21 lead into halftime.

The Saints would lengthen their lead out to 21 points at the start of the second half behind two quick baskets.   Erskine would limit Limestone to just 8 points over the next 10 minutes to trim the Saint lead to to nine points.  While the defense continued to stymie the Saint attack, offensively Erskine failed to cut into the Saint lead.  Limestone would hold onto to their lead to win 62 to 53.
