How It Happened

• While the Bison were able to net the first basket of the game, the Scots swiftly sprung to a 13-point lead (15-2) at the 5:27 mark, scoring 13 straight points before Nichols was able to find the basket again after Serianna Anderson topped off the scoring spree with one from downtown. Even though the Bison were able to round up a few more points in the remaining minutes, the Fighting Scots completely dominated, ending the first quarter up, 27-13. 
• In the next frame, Sydney Noyes immediately lengthened the Scots' lead to 15 with one from the charity stripe to open up the second quarter. Nichols attempted to close the gap but Gordon held strong to their comfortable lead, eventually going ahead by 16 with 3:48 to go thanks to a pair of free throws from Lomonaco (39-23) before heading into the second half, 45-31.
• Back from the break, I. Rivera kept her scoring spell going to regain her squad's massive 16-point lead (47-31) less than a minute after the whistle. It wasn't long before a fast break layup from Lomonaco brought the Scots' cushion to 19 before the rookie doubled up with another basket to make the score 59-38 almost halfway through the quarter. But the Fighting Scots didn't stop there, grabbing a 23-point lead after a Naomi Nicholson basket (68-45) with 1:45 left on the clock before eventually ending the third, 72-49.
• The Scots showed no mercy in the final frame, securing a 33-point lead that they would not relinquish (90-57) thanks to an Anderson three to put the cherry on top with 3:35 ticks on the scoreboard before eventually sealing the commanding win, 96-63.
