In the second half, Oakland's offense caught fire once again shooting a blistering 8-for-12 (66.7%) and 3-for-4 (75%) from 3-point range in the third quarter while holding YSU (13-14, 6-10 HL) to only 22 percent from the field to move ahead for good. The Golden Grizzlies closed out the game in the fourth quarter going 11-for-19 (57.9%) to secure the team's second league road win of the season.
