Isaiah Geathers led the way for Lehman with 23 points and nine rebounds.  Gian Batista added 16 points, 10 assists and nine rebounds, falling just short of a triple double.  Basheeru Camara earned a rare start, having not started since back in November, and chipped in 10 points and 10 rebounds; both career highs.  Alex Hanson led all players with 14 rebounds as the Lightning out-rebounded the Bulldogs 47-33.  Reserve forward Sybri Traore also netted a career high six points. 

The Lightning trailed by five midway through the first half but turned it on the final 2:44 of the half outscoring the Bulldogs 12-0 to take a 47-31 lead at intermission.  Lehman scored the first six points of the second half to extend the lead to 22.  However, the Bulldogs would not roll over.  Brooklyn quickly cut the lead to 14, 53-39 with just under 17 minutes to play but were not able to get any closer.
