KEY MOMENTS
  • Southern New Hampshire held a 15-14 edge nearly seven minutes into the contest when it scored 31 of the next 41 points to crack open a 46-24 advantage with 3:37 to play in the half. Wallace and Hall each scored six during the stretch, while senior Ray Daniels (Las Vegas, Nev.), redshirt-junior Jahshawne Joseph (Malvern, Ontario) and senior Ugo Nwachukwu (Imo State, Nigeria) each recorded five.
  • Franklin Pierce whittled its deficit to 13 at 61-48 with 11:43 to go, but a 14-4 run – led by six from Wallace – gave the Penmen their largest lead of the night at 75-52 with 6:43 left. A 13-2 blitz pulled the Ravens within 80-69 with 2:43 on the clock, but that was as close as the hosts would get.
