The conditions in the Swinney Center were conducive to basketball, with no adverse weather factors reported, allowing both teams to focus solely on their performance.
As the game progressed, it was evident that both teams were fighting hard for every point. The scoring plays highlighted key moments, including a three-point jumper by Nigel Burris that pushed Weber State ahead by eight points in the second half, and a series of free throws by Kasheem Grady II and CJ Evans that kept Kansas City within striking distance. Jerome Palm's tip shot brought the Roos to within two points, but Weber State's Trevor Hennig sealed the victory with crucial free throws in the closing moments.
The Roos' inability to convert on critical possessions down the stretch ultimately cost them the game, as they were unable to complete the comeback despite a valiant effort. This result leaves Kansas City still searching for answers as they continue to struggle this season, while Weber State will look to build on this win as they move forward.
