Skallagrimur claimed D1 title. They upset Fjolnir on the road in the decisive fifth game of the championship series. The guests trailed by 1 point after three quarters before their 33-16 charge, which allowed them to win the game. Skallagrimur shot 24 for 32 from the free-throw line, while Fjolnir only scored two points from the stripe. They looked well-organized offensively handing out 23 assists. Great defensive blocking was one of the keys in this match when Skallagrimur made 7 blocks. 24 personal fouls committed by Fjolnir helped opponents get some easy free throw opportunities. Bahamas swingman J.R. Cadot (196-87, college: TCU) stepped up with a double-double by scoring 22 points, 22 rebounds, 6 assists and 5 blocks for the winners and Kristofer Gislason (-96) chipped in 24 points and 6 rebounds. Four Skallagrimur players scored in double figures.
