Regis College fought back in the second-half, cutting the deficit to two points on two occasions (53-51), the last time coming with 9:03 remaining on a lay-up from sophomore guard Stephanie Crawford (Rockland, Mass.). 

SUNY Cobleskill extended its lead back up to 11 (67-56) on a three-pointer by Garzon and a pair of free throws by freshman forward Kaitlin Myers (Dannemora, N.Y.) with 3:39 remaining.

Sophomore forward Chelcy Moore (Albany, N.Y.) finished with a double-double, 14 points and 10 rebounds for the Fighting Tigers while sophomore guard Heidi Anderson (Canajoharie, N.Y.) added 10 points.
