Kutztown held an early lead, taking an 8-6 edge into the game's first media timeout.

With the game all square at 11-11, the Huskies embarked on a 15-2 run to extend its lead to 26-13 following a jumper by Erica Maciejewski (Red Lion/Red Lion) at the 6:10 mark of the first half.
 
Bloomsburg led by as many as 15 points during the first period before Kutztown closed to within 32-25 before a Maciejewski free throw and layup from Brianna Dudeck (Sugarloaf/Hazleton) in the final seconds stretched the Huskies lead to 35-25 at intermission.
 
The Golden Bears closed the gap to eight on free throws by Natalya Lee in the opening moments of the second half, but Bloomsburg then went on an 11-2 sprint to make its lead 48-29. From there, Bloomsburg never relinquished control, stretching its lead to 20 (51-31) with 13:19 to play following a 3-pointer from Catherine Noack (Bethlehem/Liberty). Kutztown never got closer than 18 points the rest of the way.
 
Sadowski paced the Huskies with 15 points in only 20 minutes of action. Dudeck tallied a season-best 13 points and Noack chipped in 12 points while tying a career-high with six assists.
 
Advia Campbell led Kutztown with 14 points and Jess Harvey added 11.
