CBA had a 24-13 lead at the half paced by Stephen Braunstein who scored 12 of his 16 in the first two quarters. O’Connor was aggressive attacking the rim. His lay-in to beat the buzzer at the end of the third quarter got the Bulldogs within two at 29-27. O’Connor’s hot hand would build a seven point lead. Rob Mahala gave CBA the lead back at 42-41 with 2:38 to go, but O’Connor broke a 42-42 tie in the final minute and RFH held on.
