A late rally would fall short as the Lumberjack Men's Basketball team fell to Williston State College 82-74.

The first half saw the Tetons gradually pull away from the Jacks eventually taking a 44-30 halftime lead. The Teton lead would grow to 23 early in the second half but the Jacks would eventually cut that to 15 before pushing the lead back to 22 with seven minutes remaining. This is when the Jacks would begin to rally. The Jacks turned defense to offense and cut into the Teton lead. A 3-pointer by Moustapha Diomande would cut the deficit to seven at 78-71 with 1:29 to play. On the ensuing Teton possession, the Jacks got a stop but would turn it over on their next offensive possession and the comeback would fall short, with the Tetons winning 82-74.
