They followed that up with another 22 points in the second quarter with the help of Jason Sache, who scored 10 of Niagara's 22 points in the quarter. The Knights went into the half up 40-25.
The second half saw the Condors make a strong push that cut the Knights' double-digit lead down to 9 heading into the fourth.
