The Lady Evangels (3-1) trailed 16-11 in the first half but jumped on top as a three by Williams and a bucket from Erica Jones capped a 15-4 run that gave MACU a 26-20 lead and they went on to a 27-22 lead at the half.

After a three by Allie Faul and two free throws from Lori Dauer pulled the Lady Warriors even at 29-29. a three by April Williams quickly put the Lady Evangels back on top at the 16:52 mark of the second half.

The MACU lead was 38-35 when a pair of threes by Sarah Martin and six points from Parris Price stretched the lead to a commanding 50-37 edge with 10:17 left.

From there, the Lady Evangels kept their distance from the Lady Warriors, maintaining at least an eight point lead the rest of the way.

Williams led the way with 17 points and 10 rebounds for the Lady Evangels, with Price adding 16.  Martin scored eight and Sabrina McKinney had a team-high four assists. 

Dauer paced the Lady Warriors with 16 points and Randi Lucas added 10. 

The Lady Evangels had to overcome a 42-32 rebounding deficit, but made up for it by limiting the Lady Warriors to only a 32.3 percent (20-of-62) shooting clip from the field.  The Lady Evangels shot 47.2 percent (25-of-53) overall from the floor.
