Marian used a 40-20 advantage in points in the paint and a 17-4 advantage in second-chance points to build and sustain their lead.

The Hawks were down 7-0 five minutes into the first half before a pair of Guy Ostroff free throws got Illinois Tech on the board. An Otis Reale layup with 13:46 remaining put the Hawks within one point at 7-6 before the Sabres took command of the game with a 30-12 run to close out the first half leading 37-18.
