About This Game
High Point entered this tournament matchup as a significant underdog, but they came with a clear blueprint: bury threes and protect the basketball. The Panthers launched 15 three-pointers, and while 46 total missed shots reveal an offense that wasn't clicking on every possession, those deep bombs proved devastating against Wisconsin's defense. The Badgers countered with Nick Boyd's 27-point performance and John Blackwell's 22 points and 10 rebounds, building an attack predicated on inside scoring and free throws (11 makes). But Wisconsin couldn't keep pace from distance, managing just 9 threes, and that gap ultimately defined the outcome. The possession battle told the real story: High Point's disciplined ball movement created just 6 turnovers while Wisconsin surrendered 10, a differential that proved crucial in a one-point final. Rob Martin became the Panthers' engine, distributing 10 assists while adding 23 points—a two-way performance that orchestrated the upset. With nearly even rebounding (41-40) and Wisconsin's traditional inside dominance neutralized by High Point's perimeter prowess, the underdog's strategy worked to perfection. Watch every three, every turnover, and the final dramatic seconds unfold with a custom Gameprint capturing this tournament thriller.
