UJ trailed by as many as eight points with 6:43 in the first, but two Jack Talley<\/a> (FR\/Sioux Falls, S.D.) baskets and a three-pointer from Sam Johnson<\/a> (SR\/Mora, Minn.) cut the lead to one just 97 seconds later.<\/p>\n After trailing between three and eight points in the second half, the Jimmies drew level at 54 on a three-ball from Christian Kvilvang<\/a> (JR\/Cando, N.D.) with 8:20 to play.
