Back to back three pointers by Martin and sophomore Kate Skalski pulled the Cavaliers to within 35-34, before two late free throws extended Stockton's lead to 37-34 after three quarters.

Despite going scoreless for nearly five minutes to open the fourth quarter, the Blue and White evened the score at 41 on a jumper by junior Renee Oliver with just north of four minutes to play.  

The Ospreys responded with back to back three pointers, extending their advantage to 50-43 with just over two minutes on the clock.  While jumpers by Startare and Martin pulled the Cavaliers to within five points twice in the final minutes, Stockton connected on six of its eight three attempts down the stretch to seal the win.
