In the fourth quarter, both teams would come and shoot out of the gym and the scoreboard would be on fire with a 23-19 Schroon Lake quarter. The Wildcats would take the 1-point lead with ten seconds left on the Logan Bush free throw.

When the teams would return for the second half they would find their shot as both teams would score more in the third quarter than they did the whole first half as the Wildcats would have a 20-16 quarter and take a 30-29 lead into the final eight minutes of the game. In the last quarter, the game would go back and forth with the lead changing multiple timers down the stretch as the Vikings would have a 14-10 quarter and get the 43-40 victory.
