Elijah Vander Velden and Daughtry would hit back to back buckets to start the second quarter and increase the Wabash lead to 23-5 before the Panthers scored 9 straight to slice the lead to 23-14. Daughtry would stop the Elwood run with a three, followed by a Logan Vander Velden bucket to make it 28-14 at the half.
