MCLA was able to tally the win down the stretch after the Gators rallied from being down 11 points (72-61, 6:36). Sage's junior Liz Donk (Phelps, NY/Midlakes) tied the game with her three-pointer at 3:42 (74-72) and helped Sage hold the Trailblazers in check before they overtook them with a jumper by sophomore Alie Drobrovoic (Little Falls, NY/Little Falls) at 2:30 (76-74) to break the tie and help her team to the win as they did not relinquish the lead.

MCLA led 37-34 at the break and racked up the home win as three players finished in double digit scoring on the night.
