The Hawks came out and starting hitting shots they were previously missing. They’d go on a run of their own with Jeremy Mclaughlin capping off a 34 point quarter with a buzzer beating 3. Ultimately the fourth quarter would decide the match. The Rams locked down the visitors on defence, holding them to only 8 points, while Jack Andrew would outscore the Hawks by himself 12-8 in the fourth quarter.\u00a0<\/p>\n
