Back-to-back trifectas by Yuneman and a three by junior guard Jodi Brown (Coventry, R.I.) to open the second half gave the Gulls their largest lead of the game at 13 (40-27) with 16:56 to play. However, Wentworth cam back, outscoring Endicott, 15-4 over the next 9:40 to trim the lead to two (44-42) with 7:17 left. During the run, freshman forward Emily Cring (Cicero, N.Y.) scored 10 points.

For Wentworth, Cring scored 17 points, grabbed nine rebounds, and had four assists, while sophomore forward Cheyenne Noble (Murrysville, Pa.) scored 12 points and grabbed 16 rebounds.
