Late in the second quarter, Lane went on a 13-point run that was capped by a fast break layup on a turnover from Kentucky State that gave them a 19-point 35-17 with 42 seconds remaining in the half. A three-pointer in the final seconds gave the Dragons a 19-point 38-19 halftime lead.
 
The Dragons extended their lead to a quarter-high 51-25 on a fast break score with 5:22 left in the third quarter.
