"We have a good team if everyone shows up, and we play the way we're capable of playing, said Robert Duray, 436th CS. "My strategy for the team is just to play the best I can." Comm started the game off with a 2-pointer tossed in by Gary Stines and then a 3-point shot made by KeAndre Stanton. The maintainers battled back until the very end. "We're trying to run a good offense, and it's our goal is to penetrate the Comm Squadron's zone," said Seth Scott, 736th AMXS. However, despite a few turnovers and jump shots from the Maintainers, the ball grazed the rim without making any tip-ins, helping Comm stay in the lead for the first five minutes of the game.

The clock stopped at 8 seconds, 3 seconds and 2 seconds left in the game as both teams wrestled with ownership of the ball until the buzzer rang and Comm was declared victorious 36 - 33.
