Khalil Manuel knocked down game-tying and game-winning free throws with less than 10 seconds remaining. Parkway attempted a shot to win the game as the clock dwindled, but Jovanni DeFalco blocked it as time expired.

Manuel led the way with 21 points, including four three pointers.. Tron LaFavor scored six, while Haden Walls and Jovanni DeFalco combined for nine points and 17 rebounds. Jeremiah Mann also added seven rebounds and scored, along with Durham Wood.
