Prescott got out to a 31-29 lead at halftime before the hot outside shooting of Malmov and Wallin secured the 77-68 win.
Malmov led all scorers with 28 points and nine assists after hitting eight of 16 shots from behind the arc. Wallin finished with 17 points, six rebounds and a pair of blocks after hitting five of seven shots from deep.
Seifert also scored 14 after hitting nine of 10 free throws.

The young Cardinals have quickly matured after graduating ten seniors a season ago.
“Being in two close games and holding our composure was great to see. We've got some big play from younger players and players that are new to Varsity,” Johnson stated. “This has been huge in the early going.
