The Bobcats lead 15-12 after the first quarter but completely crumbled in the second. The Bobcats were held to their lowest scoring quarter of the season as the Cardinals outscored them 3-32 in the second, their most lopsided quarter of the entire season.

The Bobcats would head into halftime down 18-44, their largest deficit all season, however the Bobcats had one last push to get back in the game after the third quarter holding the cardinals to 6pts cutting the deficit to 14. In the 4th, the Bobcats would not be unable to overcome the lead that was set and would go down (55-72).
