BABSON PARK, Fla.

Then after trailing by 19 at 48-29 with just under 10 minutes remaining in the game, a layup by Jovon Rosse started a 14-2 Warrior run to get Webber's deficit back down to seven at 50-43 with 5:11 on the clock. However, St. Thomas responded with two baskets to go back up by double-digits at 54-43 with only 4:17 left to play.
