After a Johnson basket at the 9:42 mark tied the score at 15-15, Eastern went on a 16-3 run to take a 31-18 lead with just under six minutes to play in the first half. The Eagles then went up 20 (48-28) on a basket by Joe Manzo (SO, Freehold, NJ/Freehold Boro) with 4 seconds left in the half, but Wright dribbled to just outside of the 3-point line and buried a 3-point basket to pull Wesley to within 17 points (48-31) going into halftime. The Wolverines would get no closer than 10 points the rest of the way, as Eastern shot 15-of-29 (51.7%) from the field in the second half and 37-of-68 (54.4%) for the game. Bobby Black (JR, Philadelphia, PA/King) and Ben Easley (JR, Philadelphia, PA/Pennwood) led Eastern with 22 and 20 points respectively in the win for the Eagles.
Wesley committed 15 turnovers in the game to Eastern's 26, but were out-rebounded by the Eagles, 49-37. The Wolverines shot 25-of-74 (33.8%) from the field.
