It was the program's first conference championship since 2010. Joining those two on the all-tournament eam was teammate Jaylen Colon (6'1''-G-2000), who had 11 points on Sunday. Dominican (North #2) dropped to 21-7 overall and will await word of an at-large bid on Sunday night during the Division II Selection Show at ncaa.com (.) Jalen Burgess (6'4''-F) had 27 points for the Chargers in the setback. Felician raced out to a double-digit lead in the first half, but Dominican roared back in the second half. The final 2:06 of the game featured six lead changes. Justin Copman (6'6''-F/C) sank a pair of free throws to put DC up 60-59, but McRae hit a layup at the other end with 1:44 to go to put Felician back out in front (61-60). Burgess converted a pair of foul shots 12 seconds later, but Nas Amos (5'8''-PG-2000) countered for Felician with two free throws of his own to make it 63-62 Golden Falcons. Daniel Grant (6'1''-G) was fouled taking a shot at the other end, and hit his two free throws with :27 left to give Dominican a 64-63 edge. It was left to McRae as he drilled a mid-range jumper from the left elbow with :02.3 left to put Felician back up for good. Dominican had one final chance as Burgess had a buzzer-beating attempt from just over the midcourt stripe, but it rang off the side of the backboard. Felician's win denied Dominican a third-straight CACC Tournament Championship, as the Chargers had captured the trophy in 2019 and 2020.
