Half time was brought to you by the Adrenaline Athletics Cheer Team. Three different age groups performed a variety of cheers as they entertained the crowd.

Lots of scoring in the second half. Wolves doubled their points and then some. Wolves came back from a 30 point deficit to end the game 52-73. Kelly Ried drained a 3 from the baseline in the last few seconds.
