The Wolves turned the game on its head in the second half, outscoring their hosts 49-34 after the break. A big reason was their ability to get to the charity stripe and knock down 16 free throws. Braeden Leist knocked down six free throws in the second half en route to a 17-point night to lead the Wolves. Lischka scored 16 points, Chase Romdenne registered 14 points, and Kirchman contributed 11. Alex Robbins' 22 points led the Thunderbirds.
