The rest of the half would go back and forth with multiple lead changes, and ultimately result in a 28-28 tie at the break.
 
The Panthers started the second half the same way as the first, going on a big run with the help of two 4-point plays that put them up 50-34. The Maroon and Gold tried to fight their way back into the game but could not climb all the way back as they fell short by a score of 67-60.
