The Lady Bulldogs maintained their lead throughout the second half and increased the lead to as much as 16 points at 8:29 when Candace Cain made a 2 point field goal.  Athough Milligan fouled trying to get the ball back in the last 2 minutes of the game, the Lady Bulldogs were able to make free throws and finish the game winning 73-63.  
 
The Lady Bulldogs were led in scoring by Candace Cain with 14 points.  Lindsey Jackson, Katie Blevins, and Amy Jo Castor all contributed 12 points to the Lady Bulldog win.
