It was a close game throughout all of the quarters with scores usually remaining within five points of each other. The stands were packed with fans. Many of the Fort Kent fans had Warriors towels that they would swing around whenever their team scored a basket.

There were also fans from Mars Hill who came out to support their team.

It was the Warriors, however, that would end up taking the win and serving Mars Hill their first loss in two years.

After the game, senior Tom Enerva said, "Our chemistry was there and our team worked as a unit. Our potential showed last night."
