The Seasiders threatened to run the Sea Warriors out of the gym to start the game, racing away to a 31-10 lead in the first 12 minutes of the game.  But the Sea Warriors closed the first half with a 17-2 run to trail by just three, 38-35, at the break.  Hawaii Pacific opened the second half with a three-pointer to tie the score and complete the improbable comeback, but the Seasiders quickly regained the lead and steadily pulled away in the second half for the win.
