In a game that featured 12 lead changes and five ties, Montana (10-10, 4-3 Big Sky) used a 10-0 spurt capped by a Davis basket inside to take a 55-50 lead over the Eagles (7-13, 4-3) with 3:40 left.
The Grizzlies opened the lead to eight on Kevin Criswell's breakaway layup. But Paul Butorac converted a three-point play with 1:02 left for EWU, pulling the Eagles to within five, 63-58. Montana sealed it by hitting 5 of 6 foul shots over the next 20 seconds.
