The Tigers continued to roll in the second half, as Spalding would never get closer than within 18 points and Campbellsville coasted to the big win 82-48.

All fourteen Tiger players scored in the game led by Bubba Long (SR/Owensboro) with 13 points, Clinton Joshua (SR/Jennings, Antigua) with 12 points and Nestor Colmenares (JR/Caracas, Venezuela) along with Troy Harris (JR/Georgetown, KY) both scoring 11 points each.
