Joshua Udoumoh contributed 16 points and eight rebounds, while Erik Madrid was nearly perfect inside, scoring 12 points on 6-of-7 shooting and blocking two shots.

OBU dominated the paint with 50 points inside, outrebounded Pitt State 42-31, and got key bench production from Christian Hodge (9 points, 6 rebounds). The game featured 16 lead changes and six ties before Coner Jr. sealed it with two free throws in the final seconds.

For Pittsburg State, Mason English scored 17 points and dished seven assists, while Connor Rogers added 15.
