The Flying Dutch jumped to a 28-3 lead after just the first quarter after capitalizing on 10 Olivet turnovers, with steals from six different players in the first 10 minutes alone. 

An opening 12-0 run for Hope began with an Ella McKinney jump shot and ended with a Claire Baguley layup before the Comets would successfully put up their first two points, six minutes into the game.
