After the Golden Falcons tallied the final six points of the half, Bowie State went into the locker room ahead, 34-22.

The closest that the Golden Falcons came in the second half of play was a 36-27 deficit following a Chisholm bucket with14:57 remaining. Bowie State’s Lady Bulldogs steadied itself by scoring the next six points, but Felician twice got back to within 10, the second time at 57-47 at the 5:01 mark. But the Lady Bulldogs put the game away with a 13-0 spurt over the next three minutes. The Golden Falcons finished the day with a 10-1 run for the final 14-point margin of defeat.
