Kenyon tried to answer for the Falcons, scoring 8 fourth quarter points, but the balance and quickness of the Wolves was too much to overcome. Kenyon led South Seneca with 17 points. Zajac was held scoreless in the second half. Also scoring for SS were Dylan Stiles (4 points), Ben Pollack (3) and Jeremy Williamson (2).
