In the second half, the Griffs continued right where they left off. The closest the Red Foxes would get in the second half was 4 points (50-46) on Ryan Stilphen lay-up with 14:55 to go. The final score of the game was 84-74 in favor of Canisius.
For the game, the Red Foxes shot 38 percent from the floor and only 26.5 percent from three-point land. Canisius shot 54.9 percent from the field and 46.2 percent behind the arc. The Red Foxes held the edge on the glass, out-rebounding the Griffs 43-38.
One bright spot for the Red Foxes was the play of Stilphen, who played for the first time since injuring his knee in the Iona game.
Coach Brady talked about the injury to his forward.
"Ryan was injured during the Iona game on January 9th," Brady said. "He suffered a first degree sprain of his MCL. He will wear a knee brace for the rest of the season to help prevent any other damage to his knee."
Stilphen scored nine points and grabbed three rebounds in 14 minutes of action.
