Junior forward Dennis Banks of Flint, Michigan (Powers Catholic HS) banked in a go-ahead jumper as the shot clock expired to break a 69-69 tie.

Behind a game-high 25 points from junior guard Jason Beckman of Shelby, Michigan (Shelby), the Flying Dutchmen (8-6 overall) moved into a second-place tie in the MIAA standings with a 2-1 league record.

Senior guard Dante Hawkins of Holland, Michigan (Holland) added 21 points and become the 40th Hope player to reach 1,000 points for his Flying Dutchmen career.

Calvin, which scored the first 13 points of the game, fell to 5-9 overall and 1-2 in MIAA play. Junior forward Austin Bykerk of Jenison, Michigan (Unity Christian) led four Knights in double figures with 15 points.
