"This was a hard-fought game," said head coach Mitch Freeman. "I thought Lewis & Clark did a great job of taking us out of any rhythm on the offensive end. It was nice to get some much-needed help from our bench. I was proud of the way we competed on the defensive end, holding them to a 36% mark from the field."

The Warriors finished the evening having shot 38.7% from the floor, however, their three-point shooting percentage was 41.7% in the contest.
