The Hawks would emerge from the locker room ready to go, taking the lead and stretching it to as much as nine with 11 minutes remaining. The Colonials would come back however, taking a 60-58 lead as Kanacevic picked up his fifth foul, and holding on for a 76-71 win.
Bembry led the four Hawks' scorers in double figures with 22 points, while Ronald Roberts Jr., scored 16 and grabbed 8 rebounds. Chris Wilson and Langston Galloway pitched in 14 and 10 points, respectively, but it wouldn't be enough as the Hawks' six-game win streak was snapped.
