Saint Benedict, however, went on a 19-2 run to open the second quarter, and a 3-pointer by Macy Kelly put CSB up 32-16 with 2:18 left in the second. The Scots got within 10, but Chelsey Guetter hit a three with a minute left in the half to make it 35-22 heading into the locker rooms.
 
A three by Annie Dittberner early in the third made it a 19-point game, and a layup by Guetter put CSB up 20, 47-27, for the first time. A three by Alison Newton later made it a 21-point game, but Macalester got within 16, 55-39, heading into the final quarter.
