After missing the Bulldogs' last game, Tyler Johnson (ankle) and Kevin Foster (death of grandfather) returned to starting lineup. Johnson scored 18 points, including a perfect 6-for-6 mark at the free throw line, in 30 minutes of action while Foster added six points and four points all at the charity stripe.
