With Hartford up 64-63, Chris Eames made two free throws for the last of his game-high 20 points and put the Hawks ahead by three with 1:15 to play. Terry Kringe then had a chance to tie the game for NU, but his three-point shot was short and bounced out of bounds. Riyad King made one of two free throws for Hartford and then made a clean steal from Harold Miller on NUās next possession. King was fouled again after the steal and sank two foul shots for a 69-63 lead that put the game away with 24 seconds left.

Hartford went on a 14-5 run over the next five and a half minutes and staked a 57-48 edge with 8:43 remaining. The Hawks couldnāt shake the Huskies, however, as NU answered with a 10-2 run capped by a Miller three-pointer that cut the lead to one at 59-58 with 5:03 showing. After Darrick Jackson made a three for Hartford, the Huskies got within one two more times, but Kringeās miss was the only chance to tie the game.
The game was tight throughout. The first half had five lead changes in the first 10 minutes before Hartford made a mini run. With NU up 19-18 and 9:45 to play, the Hawks got six points from Eames in a 12-4 spurt that made it 30-23 with 2:54 to go before intermission. NU got within three by scoring five of the last seven points of the half and trailed 32-29 at the break. Eames was four of five from the floor and had 12 of his 20 points in the first half.
