How It Happened
  • The opening quarter of play saw both teams getting equal opportunities, but Le Moyne was able to capitalize and held the lead for the first three minutes.  A Fressle steal at 6:47 allowed Kellner to drain a three on a fastbreak and tie the game. Two back-to-back three-pointers from the Dolphins was enough to catch fire and hold the lead by four at the conclusion of the quarter.
  • An 8-0 run for Le Moyne midway through the second quarter allowed them to gain a 10-point lead with six minutes remaining. Southern came within four points of the Dolphins, but Le Moyne went on a 10-0 run to finish the quarter taking a 14-point lead heading into halftime.
  • Le Moyne's paced remained the same at the beginning of the third quarter as they opened on an 11-point run taking a 25-point lead with just under six minutes remaining in the frame. Southern attempted to cut the deficit, but the Dolphins led by 24 after 30 minutes played. 
  • The Dolphins trio of jumpers allowed them to open the final quarter on a 6-0 run. Two back-to-back three-pointers from Kellner cut Le Moyne's lead to 24, but the Dolphins attack continued to push allowing them to capture the 77-51 victory at home. 

Notes
  • Amani Boston collected her third double-digit point game of the season with 14.
  • Alexa Kellner collected her second-straight game in double-digit points and her fourth of the season.
  • The Owls collected 22 of their 51 points from nonstarters, 14 of which belonged to Boston.
