Cam Corcoran would hit a 3-pointer to give Rollins a 10-7 lead before the Tigers scored the next seven points. After a Yenor three-point play a pair of Tigers 3-pointer's by Gob Gabriel would make it 20-13 Tigers with 7:30 in the first half. Benedict would eventually take a 36-19 record into the locker room. 

 Yenor had 11 of the Tars 19 in the opening frame as they shot 25.9 percent from the field in the half and 2-11 from the 3-point line. 

 Benedict was led by 10 from Moore and nine from Smith in the first half. They shot 42 percent from the field and 30 percent from three in the opening stanza. 

 Benedict would score the first nine points of the second half and all but put this one out of reach. The Tigers would cruise from there. 

 Rollins will be back in Saturday when they host Embry-Riddle. Tip time is slated for 4 PM.
