Navy led 34-27 at halftime and briefly extended the margin to double digits when Cam Davis' 3-pointer made it 40-29 after intermission. Bryant posted a 12-2 run with SaBastian Townes's basket making it 42-41 with 16:26 left. Navy again held a brief double-digit lead before Bryant made its final push.
