Despite only shooting 32% from the field the Spartans managed to make more free throws than the Griffens attempted. The Spartans' attack mentality, both offensively and defensively, created enough momentum for the victory.

MiraCosta was led in scoring by Dominique Moreno with 12 points which included the game winning lay up with sixteen seconds remaining. The assist came from Baptiste Boucharel.
