With a little under 6 minutes to go in the game, Greenville trailed 40-35 and then, sparked by some timely 3-pointers from Landen Moss, went on a 12-4 run over the next 4 minutes to take a 47-44 lead and then continued that run outscoring the Griffins 7-2 over the final 1:40 to grab the 54-46 win. Landen Moss led the Comets with 14 points, Jack Schaufelberger finished with 13 points and Nick Grull and Kaleb Gardner each tallied 10 points in the game.
