With the loss, the Devils dropped to 11-12 (6-6 Freedom) while the Bulldogs improved to 14-9 (7-5 Freedom).

The Bulldogs opened up a 19-14 advantage with 8:58 to go in the first half when the Devils reeled off an 18-6 run to grab a 32-25 lead with 0:15 remaining in the half.  Katz had eight points in the run for FDU.  DeSales came right back down the court though, and scored the final bucket of the half with 0:03 on the clock to trim the FDU lead to 32-27 heading into the locker rooms.

FDU grabbed a nine-point lead, 41-32, early in the second half after a three-pointer from junior guard Mike Williamson but DeSales responded with a 13-2 run to take a 45-43 lead with 8:51 to play in the game.  Sophomore forward Andrew Stress then knocked in back-to-back three-pointers to put the Devils back on top by four, 49-45, just a minute later.  The two squads then went back-and-forth after that with neither team holding mor ethan a three-point edge for the next seven minutes.  With the Devils trailing by one, 57-56, and 0:26 remaining, Katz was fouled and buried two free throws to give FDU a 58-57 edge.  After a timeout, DeSales came down and buried a jumper from the elbow to take a 59-58 lead with 0:09 to go.  The Devils got one last look at a desperation three as time expired but it was no good, allowing DeSales to pick up the win.
