After a slow start, trailing 14-17 in the first quarter, CRBT surged ahead with a strong defensive effort in the second, outscoring Douanes 17-9 to take a 31-26 halftime lead. The game remained competitive through the third, but CRBT maintained composure and sealed the win with an 18-point final quarter.
