Ohio Northern cut the lead to 4 points with under three minutes to play and the crowd went wild, but the tide turned and Christopher Newport advances to the Division III final four.
• Final score - Christopher Newport University (Virginia) 76
Ohio Northern University 66

• End of first quarter 18-18.
During second quarter ONU shots wouldn’t go in, while Christopher Newport hit 3-pointers after 3-pointers.
Halftime:

Ohio Northern 25
CNU has a scrappy defense and pressed ONU full court. ONU shooting 37 percent compared to CNU’s 55 percent.
