The Black Knights trailed 37-35 with 5:10 left in the first quarter, before the Crusaders used an 18-4 run through the start of the second half to take a 14-point lead.

The Black Knights cut that deficit to two points with 6:36 remaining in the game, but a jump shot and a pair of free throws from Boston gave the Crusaders an eight-point lead with 39 seconds left.
