As St. Paul focused on heading off Morrison in the second half, Cummings caught fire with 9 points in the second half for second in team scoring with 13 points. Sophomore guard McKynzee Burkholder also got hot in the second half with four of her 6-point production coming in the second half. Junior forward Jayda Rice, senior guard Aubrey Chambers and sophomore guard Khloey Deeder-Kirkpatrick scored a bucket each.
