"Proud of our guys today," said seventh-year head coach Caleb Kimbrough, who won his first game against his alma mater in the building that he played in as a standout guard for GC (2004-08). "We played with heart, with effort and stayed together for 40 minutes. Big road win."

In a contest that began 12 minutes past its scheduled start time of 2 p.m. due to several pre-game festivities, including Senior Day at GC, H-SC took an early 4-1 lead after an offensive rebound basket by Cannon and drive to the basket by Moye. The Quakers scored the next seven points to lead 7-4, but Wright answered with a three-point field goal at 13:51 to tie it at 7-7. Two free throws by Wright and a three-pointer from White had the Tigers ahead 12-9 with 12:06 on the first-half clock, and a three-pointer by Moye gave the visitors their largest lead of the opening half, 21-17 at 9:38. H-SC still led 28-27 after two free throws from senior guard Colin Radcliffe (Richlands, NC) at 6:06, and it was tied against at 30-30 following an offensive rebound and two-handed slam dunk by Cannon with 4:03 left.

H-SC closed to within 41-40 early in the second half as sophomore guard Travis Stickney (Mount Pleasant, SC) scored four quick points, and the Tigers were within 48-47 at 14:27 after another three-pointer by Moye. A three-pointer from Ke Edwards gave GC its largest lead of the second half at 51-47 with 14:16 remaining, but the Garnet & Grey seemingly took control of the contest with a 21-6 run to lead 68-57 at 7:59 following an offensive rebound tip-in by Wright.
