The Pacers responded with a 5-0 spurt to pull ahead 12-11, but Aubrey Ennis answered the call with a three to put DelVal back ahead, 14-12, with just under a minute remaining.  Marywood held the 3-2 edge in the final minute to tie the score. 16-16, at the end of the first quarter.

The Pacers answered with a 5-0 run to build up a three-point lead, 27-24, stuffed by a three from Jenna Schiessl to tie things up, 27-27, at the half.
 
DelVal came out strong with a 6-0 run to lead 33-27 ended by a long ball from the Pacers to cut the lead to three, 33-30, with 6:36 to play in the frame.

The Aggies had the 3-1 scoring advantage in the final two minutes for the 41-36 lead heading into the final quarter.
 
Wright kept up the Aggies momentum with a three pointer in the first two minutes to extend the Aggies lead to eight, 44-36, its largest of the game. DelVal continued with a 5-4 run to further extend its lead to nine, 49-40, and force a Pacers timeout at the 6:48 mark.
