The Knights who had a tough season came out tonight and played with their hair on fire dominating the game from wire to wire with their largest lead being 37 late in the second half. The Eagles held the lead only once and it was a small 3 point lead early on in the contest. The Knights scored more points tonight than any of the other games this season even though they shot just 44.9% from the field. The reason they scored so many points with that percentage is due to their three point shooting. The Knights shot 14-35 from distance good enough for 40%.
