It was a slow start for both teams as defense dictated the game early on. A jumper by Caiden Crego, assisted by Katie Deatherage, cut the early Fisher lead to 6-4. However, the Cardinals scored the next 13 points to build a 19-7 lead. Sydney Brown snapped the run with a three, but St. John Fisher led 21-7 after the first.

Brown kept the shooting going as she hit a three on Keuka's first possession of the second half, but the Cardinals went on another 13-0 run to widen their lead. Maddie Kramer got a second-chance layup to stop the run. The Cardinals led 42-16 at the half.

The Wolves came out fast as Katie Deatherage made a pair of layups to open the scoring in the frame. St. John Fisher responded with 11 straight before Janea Hamilton-Brown hit a pair of free throws for the Wolves. Hamilton-Brown later had a personal 5-0 run as she scored all seven of her points in the third quarter.

The Cardinals put the game away in the fourth, holding Keuka College without a basket until Meghan Ellis made a basket with 2:48 left in the frame. St. John Fisher would go on to defeat the Wolves 83-31.
