Castleton (2-17, 1-7 NAC) jumped out to a 18-13 lead with 12:42 to play before the Johnson State (11-7, 5-3 NAC) bench sparked a 14-5 run to allow the Badgers a 27-23 lead. A Ralph Celestin three-point field goal with 6:25 remaining the first half gave Castleton its final lead of the night at 33-32. Johnson completed in the first stanza on a 10-4 spurt to go to the locker room with a 42-37 lead.
