The Phoenix, who held a comfortable 59-39 lead after three quarters, managed just 7 in the final frame compared to 24 for WCI in a game that ended 65-63 for Resurrection.
WCI's star forward, Ivan Bilandzic, tried to play through an illness but was unable to manage more than a couple minutes in the opening frame. PG Sam Sutherland displayed some great shooting ability en route to a game-high 21 point performance while 6'5" F Shamar Bailey did some great work on the interior to help lead the Vikes back in the final frame. He finished with 16 points.
Joe Hunter led the way (11) for Rez in the win while forward Sean Begy contributed 10 points and some nice work on the defensive backboards.
