Sam Auguste and Jovany Deceus led the way for the Warriors, scoring 18 and 17 points, respectively. Both players were hot from three-point range, combining for nine of Webber International's 12 made threes. Auguste added five assists, while Deceus pulled down eight rebounds.

The first half was all Webber International. The Warriors posted a season-high 48 points in the first half, while limiting the Eagles to just 23. Auguste and Deceus were dominant in the first half, posting 21 of the Warriors' 48 points. Lyals' pin-point passing from the top of the key was instrumental in breaking Trinity Baptist's defense, assisting on four baskets.

The second half saw much of the same, as Webber International did not let up the pressure. Aguste netted nine more points in the second half, including two more three-point shots. Cody Carden was effective off the bench, going 2-3 from beyond the arch, netting eight points in the final half.
