GAME SUMMARY
St. Cloud State may have opened with a slow start but after the first six minutes, there was no looking back for the Huskies. Strong shooting from Huskies kept them in the lead.

Freshman Jada Eggebrecht led the Huskies scoring with 14 points in the first half.

The Huskies continued a strong showing on offense growing their lead by 24 points by the end of the third period.
