Kane Williams led South Paulding into the locker room with 13 points, seven rebounds, three assists and four steals, while Bertrand netted 10 points.

South Paulding finally reclaimed the lead with 3:19 to play at 49-47.

Three Titans finished in double-figures with Bertrand leading the way with 16 points, Kyle Swade chipping in 12 and Abrams adding 11.
