Key Moments

While Puget Sound (12-11, 6-8 NWC) ultimately took the lead in the third quarter, the Pioneers scored five of the first six points of the period. Peyton Romo, who finished with seven points, scored a layup, and Cerne hit one of her two 3-pointers to give Lewis & Clark a 26-22 lead.  

Lange made the next six field goals for the Loggers for a 36-30 lead with 4:50 left in the third. Romo's 3-pointer with 29 seconds left brought the Pios back to within one possession, but Puget Sound's RaeAnn Allen scored at the buzzer to give the Loggers a five-point lead heading to the fourth.

In the first minute of the fourth, Cerne scored a three and a free throw, and Lewis & Clark trailed 42-41. The Pioneers went cold for a six-minute stretch and scored just once to fall behind by a game-high 12 with 3:08 remaining. 

Lewis & Clark (2-19, 1-12 NWC) held five separate three-point leads in the first half, but never pushed it to more until the first two minutes of the third. Its largest lead was four.
