McKnight got Truman on the board just over a minute into the game with a bucket, and Miller followed with a triple to give the Bulldogs a 5-0 lead. Lewis would get the next six to take the lead and the teams went back and forth for most of the half. With Truman up 14-12, Miller drained another three and then following a make from the foul line by Miller and a layup by Alex McQunn; Truman led 20-12. Lewis fought back to tie the game at 24, and then took a 27-26 lead after a three pointer by Frericks. Hunter Strait made two from the foul line to put the Bulldogs back in the lead, and then Miller put Truman up 31-27 but Frericks made a three at the buzzer to answer and make it 31-30 heading into the intermission.

Elijah Hazekamp opened the second half scoring with a layup for Truman to put the Bulldogs up by three. Lewis would come back to grab a 36-35 lead, but a triple from Hazekamp at the 16:48 mark put Truman back in the lead. At the 15:32 mark a layup by Bell put Lewis up 43-40, but four straight free throws from Hazekamp put Truman back on top as it began a 14-4 run for the Bulldogs. Turner Scottcapped off the run with a three pointer to give Truman a 54-47 lead with 11:23 to go. Lewis would not get closer than five the rest of the game as Truman pulled away for the victory.
