How It Happened
- The Royals scored the first two baskets of the game before senior guard Morgan Amy hit a jumper for the Hounds' first points of the night.

- In the second quarter, the Blue & Grey got within eight points on a three-pointer from senior forward Emily Markowski; however, the Royals headed to the locker room with a 26-15 edge
- After a basket from Scranton to begin the second half, Moravian ran off eight straight points with three-pointers from Zamolyi and Markowski and a jumper by junior forward Sam Osorio to get within five points at 28-23 with 5:37 left in the third quarter. The Greyhounds were still down five, 30-25, after Markowski hit two free throws, but Scranton answered with a 10-0 run and would lead 40-26 after 30 minutes of play
