Teagan Kamm fueled an 8-1 run to give the Hounds a 24-18 edge, but the hosts closed the first half of an 8-1 run of their own, including a Tatum Forbes layup with two seconds left, to regain the lead (26-25) at the intermission. 
 
Assumption came out of the locker room strong, as they shot 8-of-9 from the field, which sparked a 19-8 run to take the game's lone ten-point advantage (44-34). Saint Anselm closed out the third with a 7-0 run, cutting the deficit down to three (44-41), entering the final quarter.
