In the third quarter Federal Hocking’s offense began to step it up. Takira Walker scored nine points but it was not quite enough to catch them up to Waterford. At the end of the third quarter the Wildcats were still up, 37-16.
During the final quarter of the game, Kendall Sury led Waterford in scoring by sinking a three and making one in the paint, totaling her to 15 points for the game.
