In the first half, the Fighting Scots held their hosts to less than a point per minute, jumping out to a 42-19 lead. Ashley Yeast netted 15 of her team-high 17 points in those first 20 minutes and Courtney Scherrer picked Knox's pocket four times and cruised in for easy layups. Scherrer also came up big in the second half and tied her collegiate high with 15 points to go with seven steals. Also playing well for the Scots were Elyse Lambert, who scored 10 points, and Mallory Mulvihill and Cassie Jensen, who each netted nine.
The Scots went on to take a 67-40 second-half lead with nine minutes left before the Fire got warm and used some of their seven second-half treys to go on a 16-0 run to cut the deficit to 11 at one point.
Yeast added 11 rebounds and four steals, while Scherrer dished out four assists for MC, now 2-7 overall and 1-1 in the league.
