The Lumberjacks closed the deficit to three after intermission with a 3-pointer from JoJo Anderson and layups from Brooks Debisschop and Karl Harris as the Bulls failed to score until almost four minutes into the second half when Nikola Scekic made a pair of free throws.

NAU (2-10) then went scoreless and Jiggetts added a layup, Isaiah Manderson made a pair of free throws and Banks added a 3 for 42-30 lead. The Lumberjacks never got closer than six the rest of the way.
