Amherst was the first to tally when Elliott, a few seconds after the opening whistle, dropped the ball through the hoop from the foul line. A moment later, however, McLeish evened it up with another foul shot and then scored again from scrimmage. The Purple staged a come-back as Stewart made two straight scores from play but shortly afterward Gordon repeated the performance and the University again swung into the lead.
