In the second half of the game, Laurier restricted Guelph from extending their lead but weren't able to dig themselves out of the deficit. Guelph outscored Laurier in the third quarter 20-14 due to Laurier's continued struggles from beyond the arc.

By the end of the game, Laurier was able to reduce the deficit to 21 points, but Guelph was able to maintain their advantage to extend their winning streak to six games.
