The Spartans won the rebounding battle 34-29. They had 26 assists and 17 turnovers as they completed the season sweep of the Tars.
Gamble would give a preview of how most of the night would go 12 seconds into the contest when he buried his first of 10 3-pointer's. It would be Rollins that would get out to a seven point lead (12-5) nearly six minutes in. After a Devon Colley 3-pointer capped a 11-2 run the Spartans would have a 16-14 advantage halfway thru the opening half. The lead would be stretched to 11 (31-20) after another Gamble 3-ball with 4:33 in the opening half. McKim would briefly get the lead to within single digits after a three of his own but it would be a 15 point lead (49-34) for Tampa at the intermission.

After being down 14 (77-63) with eight minutes to go on a 15-2 bust capped by a fadeaway 3-pointer by Castaneda that cut the lead to one (79-78) as the shot clock expired. All of the sudden Warden Arena had new life. A couple of empty Rollins possessions and a free throw by Marco Downer made it 80-78 with less than four and a half minutes to go. Downer would quiet the crowd with an old fashioned three-point play with 3:25 to go that made it a five point Tampa advantage. Downer would score again- but the Tars would get a Recio 3-pointer to make it 85-81 with 2:24 to go. After a Recio steal Castaneda could not convert on a 3-point attempt at the 1:58 mark. After another Rollins stop Castaneda made a pair of free throws to cut the deficit to two (85-83) with 1:36 to go. Gamble would make a jumper and then Bonner would get to the rim for a bucket but could not convert the old fashioned three-point play as it would be 87-85 with 1:02 to go. A pair of Moreno free throws would make it 89-85. McKim would split a pair of free throws- and- then Ibrahim would split a pair of his own. A McKim layup with 25 seconds left would get the Tars within two one last time (90-88.) Gamble and Moreno would close the victory out at the free throw line for the Spartans.
