"I think we battled." Stated Head Coach Eddie Kite. "We came in and hung in there as best as we could, we just made too many little mental mistakes."

After a media timeout, the Lady Cardinals got their groove back and went head strong to take the first quarter 22-6. That would be one of the biggest leads of the night. H0wever, in the second quarter, the Fillies were able to cut the lead to 8 with a 15-7 run sparked by Sophomore Denasia Watson getting to the free throw line and Sophomore Amanda Cruz hitting two back-to-back three pointers. Shortly after, Trinity would again come back and make a big run, ending the half up 42-25.

The Fillies were able to outscore their opponent 40-39 in the second half, but it just was not enough for them to get a victory. Patience Okpe led the Fillies with 17 points on the night and Sophomore Denasia Watson added double digits with 10 points.
