The win, which was the third for the Chanticleer program in a postseason tournament, improved Coastal to 21-11 on the season, while Grand Canyon's season ends at 27-7.

Grand Canyon took a 58-52 lead on Grandy Glaze's eight bucket of the night with 3:37 to play. Two possessions later Wilson dropped in his second 3-pointer of the day, cutting the Lopes lead to 58-55. Following two missed GCU shots, Wilson worked his way to the free-throw line, making the first and missing the second. However, the ball deflected out of bounds off a GCU player and Wilson sliced to the basket to score on Coastal's inbounds play to knot the game at 58-58.

On Grand Canyon's ensuing possession, Wilson blocked Joshua Braun's 3-point attempt. The Chants brought the ball up the floor and called timeout to set up a final play. The play went to Wilson, who converted a twisting layup in the paint with 2.2 seconds to play, pushing Coastal ahead 60-58.

The Chants' defense finished the game, not allowing Grand Canyon a final shot.

Wilson led a trio of Chanticleers in double-figures with his 16 points (5-12 FG, 2-5 3FG, 4-6 FT). Colton Ray-St Cyr and Marcus Freeman joined Wilson with 10 apiece. Tristian Curtis made his impact on the glass with 10 rebounds, while Freeman controlled eight and Ray-St Cyr seven.

Glaze led the Grand Canyon offense with 16 points. Joining Glaze in double-figures was Gerard Martin and DeWayne Russell with 11 and 10 points, respectively. Glaze also led the Lopes with a game-high 13 rebounds.

Coastal closed the game shooting 40.0 percent from the floor (20-50) and 27.8 percent from three (5-18). GCU made 35.7 percent of its attempts (25-70) and 5-of-26 from deep (19.2%). Coastal controlled the boards 45-41 and outscored the Lopes 22-16 off the bench.

Grand Canyon made the first shot of the game and led 6-0 before Ray-St Cyr put the Chants on the board with a three from the left wing. Jaylen Shaw and Wilson followed with threes of their own to give Coastal a 9-6 edge. Curtis expanded the Chants lead to 15-10 with a runner off the glass as the Lopes struggled from the field, missing nine consecutive shots.

Coastal's lead would not last long with GCU piecing together a 13-3 run over the next four minutes to take a 23-18 lead. The Lopes run was led by five points from Glaze and a steal that led to a Dominic Magee fast break layup. Freeman counted CCU's next two buckets and Ray-St Cyr drained his second triple of the night to tie the game at 23. Magee immediately answered on the other in to push Grand Canyon back on top. Glaze's score inside was countered by a free throw by Shaw and a jumper by Wilson in the closing minutes, cutting the Lopes halftime lead to 28-26.
