Both teams opened at an efficient pace, with College Park taking a 40-39 lead after one quarter. The Skyhawks shot 66.7% from the field in the period, while Greensboro connected on 60.0%.

The Swarm responded in the second quarter, outscoring College Park 38-28 to take a 77-68 lead into halftime. Greensboro generated offense through second-chance opportunities, posting 11 offensive rebounds and 12 second-chance points in the first half.

Greensboro trailed by as many as 11 in the fourth quarter before rallying to take a 122-120 lead with just over four minutes remaining.

On the final possession, Johnson peeled from the left block to the right elbow, rising up for a game-tying turnaround to extend play to overtime.
