Header How it Happened
Bethune-Cookman (2-5) got off to a scorching start, racing out to an 11-1 lead thanks to threes by Trey Thomas and Brayon Freeman.

Gardner-Webb (4-3) flipped the switch from there, answering with an 11-1 run of its own and continuing the barrage to go in front 25-17 before Reggie Ward Jr. stopped the bleeding with a layup.

With four minutes remaining in the first half, Anthony Selden drained a three to put the Bulldogs up 11. After nearly three scoreless minutes, the Bulldogs added five more unanswered to enter the break up, 43-28. 

Gardner-Webb's largest lead of the afternoon came with 18 to play in the game as Selden's layup put the Bulldogs up 18. 

The Cats kept things close, cutting the lead to 10 on a Jesus Carralero Martin three ball to make it 57-47 with 11 to play. Daniel Rouzan again made it a 10 point game with seven to play on a fastbreak layup. 

The Cats brought it down to single digits for the first time in the second half on a tip-in from Kalil Camara, but Gardner-Webb pushed the lead up to as much as 19 on the way to the 79-64 win.
