On December 1st, Colin McCarthy drew a charge with less than 10 seconds to play that kept Arcadia in front and gave them a 71-68 win at Stevenson Mustangs. Travis Saltus, who led the Knights with 17 points, then hit a pair of free throws and a missed shot by Stevenson gave Arcadia the victory. The Knights led by as many as 14 points in the win and were able to hold off the Mustangs at the end. Then on January 19th, Joe Brown scored 22 points, including a jumper with 1:09 to play to put Arcadia up for good in a 77-75 win over the Stevenson. Brown gave the Knights a 73-71 lead and then hit a free throw 30-seconds later to put the Knights up by three. Brown and Aaron Lee-Webb then went 3-4 from the line in the final 14-seconds to preserve the victory.
