Co-Lin could not have had a better start Tuesday night as the team drained four straight three-pointers from Miles Daniels, Damarius Brooks, and Lazorian McNulty. Just two and a half minutes into the game Co-Lin was already on top 12-3.
That quick run grew over the following minutes as Co-Lin stretched the lead to 19-3, four minutes into the game.

William Carey went on a brief run in the final minutes of the first half and opening minute of the second and cut the Wolves’ lead to the lowest it had been since midway through the first, 16 points. However, Co-Lin fired an 11-3 run led by Dayquan Perkins, Xavier Heidelberg, and Daniels, to pull the lead back to 27, 61-34.
