After a driving layup by Jessica Russi, back-to-back baskets by the Lady Tigers gave them a three-point edge with just 6:04 left 59-56. On the Sharks' next possession, Taylor Buie missed a contested layup, but Russi retrieved the offensive board, and after Buie curled all the way back out to the right wing, Russi found her for a wide-open 3 to tie the game at 59-59.

Two free throws by Danielle Robinson put the Sharks up two, and though Grooms' jumper tied it at 61-61 with 4:29 left, that would be the last points Benedict would score. A Jasmine Wilkins layup at 3:35 started the final 14-0 stretch, as Benedict missed their last four shots while committing four turnovers. Buie scored nine of those 14 points, and beyond the final stretch, as a team, the Sharks made nine out of their last 10 free throws to seal the win.
Buie had game-high honors with 23 points overall, 18 of those coming in the second half. Richelle Carach was next with 15 points.
