The hosts got out to a fast start against Keuka on Friday, scoring the first 14 points of the game while the Wolves opened 0-9 from the floor. Isaac McIlroy (Watkins Glen, N.Y. / Watkins Glen) got the Wolves on the board with a three-pointer six minutes into the game. Lorenzo Bicknese quickly followed with his first three to make it 14-6. The Soaring Eagles extended their lead and led by as many as 22 in the first half. Elmira College led 49-28 at halftime.

The two teams traded points early in the second half. The Wolves would then show life as they would go on a run. Lorenzo Bicknese went on a personal 9-0 run with a trio of threes as Keuka College got the margin back to single digits, trailing 58-49 with 11:46 left to play. Elmira answered with a three, but Keuka later cut it to eight on a jumper by Devin Milton (Opelousas, La. / Beau Chene). However, that would be as close as the Wolves would cut it. Elmira pulled away late to defeat the Wolves 82-67 on Friday night.
