Jordan Steiner scored 12 of his team-high 15 points for South Adams in the first half. Ethan Sharp followed with 10 second-half points, nine of which came on three fourth-quarter 3-pointers.
Friday night's game was also tight, with the Starfires trailing by one after the first quarter before grabbing a 24-22 advantage at the half.
Jordan Sharp racked up 11 of his game-best 23 points in the fourth quarter, and Steiner went 9-of-10 from the line in the final period as he scored 11 points.
