Taylor Sandberg scored three of his 13 points in the second overtime for the Lions, who squandered an 11-point halftime lead as Entiat charged back.

Entiat's Kevin Arnold sank two free throws with eight seconds remaining in the first overtime to knot the score at 53. The Lions weren't able to get off a shot, sending the game into the second extra period.

Firouzi finished with 12 points, and Sandberg and Moffet each grabbed 13 rebounds.

Leonardo Quezada led four Entiat players in double figures with 15 points, who Dylan Crawley and Jacob Anderson each added 13 and Tomas Whitehall 11.
