 Championship Game at Kellogg Arena
Battle Creek and Dayton played in front of 1,854 fans and put on a great show. From tip-off, it was fiery and exciting; the game went back and forth with Dayton seeming to be the stronger team in the fourth quarter, but Battle Creek had been behind in the second half of many games this season (Oakland, Detroit, Macomb County, Des Moines) so Battle Creek was in familiar territory. In the final minute and a half, Battle Creek's Robby Collum hit a jumper to tie the game at 119-119, then stole the ball and scored two free throws to make it 121 to 119; finally Robby hit a few more free throws to put the game at 124 to 121. Dayton missed a three point shot to tie the game as time expired. Battle Creek 124 Dayton 121

  IBL All Star Game
