The Griffins (5-10, 3-5 PAC) trailed by eight points with 2:26 to go before a key three-pointer from senior Francis Bowe and a driving layup by junior Frank Barder pulled Gwynedd within 67-65 with under 30 seconds remaining.
Wesley (6-8, 5-2 PAC) had a chance to ice the game after Daniel Henry was fouled on the ensuing possession, but he could only hit one of two attempts from the line. With just 11 ticks on the clock, GM drove the length of the court but a last-chance three-pointer was no good.

Bowe grabbed a career-best 12 rebounds to go along with nine points. The Griffins shot 39% (27-of-68) for the game but only hit 5-of-13 attempts from the charity stripe. Wesley hit 34% (22-of-64) of its shots and held a 46-44 rebound edge.
