Fellow freshman post player Dayton Young (Muskego, Wis./Catholic Memorial) led the squad with five rebounds and junior forward Patrick Hanley (Plainfield, Ill./Plainfield) dished out a team-high four assists. The Foresters shot 38.5 percent from the floor while the Vikings connected on 57.1 percent of their field goal attempts. Lake Forest also shot 9-for-23 from three-point range and 6-for-9 from the free throw line. Lawrence made 18 three-pointers in 29 tries and knocked down six of 13 foul shots.

The visitors led by as many as 24 points during the first half and 45-23 at halftime after shooting 11-for-15 from beyond the arc in the period. Clark made the first two baskets of the second half but the Foresters were out-scored 34-6 over the next 10 minutes as Lawrence put the game out of reach.
