During the same period, Deatrick Pace hit a 3-pointer, Bridgette Smith scored with a two and a free throw and DeSheka Porchia hit a 2-pointer for the Lady Roadrunners.

Porchia led the two squads in scoring with 19 points. Two other Lady Roadrunners scored in double figures: Pace made 14 and B. Hildreth scored 10 points for the losers.
