How It Happened

The Gators played Humboldt close to start the first quarter but turnovers and missed shots plagued the Gators in the final four minutes. Down 16-12, Darte was fouled and went to the line and got one in to make it a one possession game. Karli Muagututia opened the second quarter with her first basket of the season to cut the lead to a point but Humboldt responded with a 6-0 run. The Gators got back within three with 5:43 to go in the second but SF State's offense went cold and the Lumberjacks went on a 14-0 run ro take a 36-19 lead with 1:45 to go. Geriah Bradley drew three straight fouls to go to the line and added four points for the Gators but SF State would trail 39-23 heading into the locker room.

The Gators stayed even with the Lumberjacks but could not make up any ground in the third as they outscored them 15-12. After shooting poorly from three in the first three frames, the Gators made back-to-back threes to cut the lead down by ten with 5:37 to go.
