Playing most of the first half with an ankle sprain from earlier in the week, Hasquet sprained his other ankle shortly before halftime, but returned to lead the Grizzlies to second-half margins of as many as seven points before the Tigers tied the game with less than a minute remaining.

Andrew Strait scored 12 points and Matt Martin had 10 in Montana's losing effort. Guard Ryan Staudacher had six assists against a single turnover and scored five points.

Montana shot 52.8 percent from the field (28-for-53) and 40 percent from three-point range (8-for-20). The Grizzlies made 7-for-9 free throws on the game compared to 23-of-31 free throws for the Tigers.

The Griz scored 31 points in the paint and had a positive 19-assist to 16-turnover ratio.
