FIRST QUARTER:
Johnson won the tip-off, earning her fifth straight win from the jump and Josena Frame fired a three-pointer within 10 seconds of gameplay. Unfortunately, J. Frame's shot was no good and Southeastern's Haiden Williams scored the first points of the game after draining a three from deep. After the shot, Scout Frame rolled in a layup assisted by Kes Reeves to put the Lady Rangers on the board. SOSU's Jordan Benson steals the ball from J. Frame, but older sister S. Frame comes to the rescue and steals the ball right back from Benson.  S. Frame tosses up a shot from outside that is no good and Katie Branam rebounds it and dumps it off to Williams in the paint for a quick basket. With under five minutes left in the first quarter the Savage Storm led the-Red-and-Black by six until Neeley scores off an assist from Brown from underneath. The Savage Storm led the entire first period but a made three-pointer from Shephard left the Lady Rangers down only a point at the end of the quarter. (SOSU 18-17)
 
SECOND QUARTER: 
Neeley opens the quarter with a made free throw to tie the scores at 18 a piece. Savage Storm's Benson scores off a layup to go up two until Neeley drains a three-pointer assisted by Jarah Whitfield to take control of the game by one. At the 5:50 mark Shephard stole the ball from Williams and scored off a fastbreak-layup to go up on the Savage Storm by three until Chandler Kemp put in two free throws to cut the Lady Ranger lead back to one. With only three minutes left in the first half Brown puts in two free throws to keep Northwestern up by three but Branam rolls in a layup that was assisted by Williams to keep the-Red-and-Black up by only one point. S. Frame fouls Branam with less than two minutes left in the period and she puts in both her free throws and tosses in a layup to gain a three-point lead over NWOSU to go into halftime… (Southeastern led at halftime 35-32)
 
THIRD QUARTER: 
Johnson puts in back-to-back scores to open the second half and go up on the Savage Storm by one until Branam fires again from down under rolling in another layup, this time with Aimee Alverson snatching the assist. Brown answers back with quick score that J. Frame assisted to put Northwestern back in the lead by one. Quick scores from Johnson, Branam and S. Frame keep the teams' scores bouncing back-and-forth between lead changes but Southeastern took the third quarter 53-48 after free throws and a layup from Briley Moon as well as a quick score from Branam inside the paint. (SOSU 53-48)
