McVicar put the Black Bears on top by a pair with her sixth 3-pointer of the game off an offensive rebound by Dor Saar. Following a missed layup by Stony Brook and a big defensive board by Carroll, a jumper by Saar with 40-seconds on the clock put the game away.

The first quarter featured six lead changes and four ties with neither team extending its lead out to more than three over the first 10-minutes.
