Chicago-area natives Bobby Harvey and Jerome Davis led Maryville with 14 and 12 points, respectively. The Saints had four players score in double figures.

The score was tied four times early before Lewis broke an 18-18 tie to edge out to a 28-20 lead. Casey Teson sank a jumper as the Saints cut the deficit to 33-28. Dezmond McDaniel drilled a 3-pointer as Maryville closed to 35-31. Lewis scored late for a 37-31 lead at the break.
 
Harvey sank a 3-pointer on the first possession of the second half for the Saints to pull them to within three at 37-34. The Flyers outscored the Saints 20-5 over the next six minutes to extend their margin.
