Coming in to Saturday's game, Dubois' playoff hopes were on the line. They had to overcome their Fayette opponent of whom they defeated in overtime earlier in the year.

With 5:00 left in the first half, a 3-pointer from London Hoxie would bring the game to another tie at 24 all. Fayette would end the first half with a 16-7 run to lead by 9.

Both teams exchanged 3-pointers to initiate the second half. Score was 44-50 in favor of Fayette after a layup from Jordan Pratt with just under 15:00 left to play. Fayette would go 6-7 from the charity stripe to Dubois' 4-4 mark bringing their lead to 5. Dubois knew that if they didn't turn it up at this point of the game that their playoff hopes would soon begin to slowly diminish. A layup from Tristan Pierce brought Dubois within 7 with just 5:00 remaining in the game. Dubois would finish the game 8-8 from the charity stripe but it would prove to be insufficient as Fayette finished the game 11-11 from the line securing a 92-80 win. Notable players for Dubois were: Pierce 20, Reynolds 14, Perrin 13, & Pearce 8.

Dubois' Sam Roselli (Ridgway, PA) played in his final game in a PSUD uniform. He will be greatly missed and was a true asset to the team. Roselli ends his career with a cornucopia of accolades both from the PSUAC & USCAA Div. II.
