How it Happened 
First Quarter

• HFU scored the first five points, capped by an Ava Morrow (Morgantown, Pa./Twin Valley) 3-pointer, but Bloomfield came back with the next 10, and the Bears would lead by as many as six after four straight points made the score 11-17 just over eight minutes into the action
• Back-to-back layups by Moore trimmed the deficit to two, but an and-one extended the cushion back to five, 15-20, entering the second 

Second Quarter

• Bloomfield then scored the first six points the second, in 2:19, to build the first double-digit advantage
• The Tigers made back-to-back baskets, and the two teams would trade points until a Prevost layup got HFU as close as 26-30 entering the final two and a half minutes of the half
