The second period begins with Newberry coming out on fire and pulling the game to 34-16 at the 7-minute mark in the second period. The Trojans would allow them to get as close as 16 at the 2:36 mark but Freshman #4 Ashley Hill drains a three to make it 43-22. The Wolves would keep fighting to get back in the game and at halftime the Trojans would go in with a 45-28 lead.

The open up the third period both teams get their first shots in, as we look like a back-and-forth battle in the first few minutes of the game. The game at the 4:35 mark is still at 20 points as Anderson has kept Newberry at bay. Trojans Graduate Gurad Ciara Harris has had a huge game with 21 points so far in the game, as Newberry has two at 9 points apiece leading them as the score now is 59-36 3 minutes left as we have a media timeout. We head to the fourth and final period with the Trojans leading 66-43 and look for interviews with Coach and a player after the game on GSM YouTube.
