The Indians got off to a quick offensive start and would go on a 27-14 run in the first 8 minutes of play. Marshall would get their offense going though in the second quarter and fight back to outscore the Indians 21-8 and tie things up 35-35 at halftime. The two teams combined for just 12 points in the third quarter, but Altamont would score eight of those points for a 43-39 lead at the end of the period. Altamont would outscore Marshall 13-12 in the closing quarter to edge their lead out and close out the win, 56-51.
