In the opening tip off of the game, Houston got the ball and Sarah Watkins went on a shooting spree scoring 8 of the team's 10 first quarter points including 4 rebounds. Millington started off slow and didn't get their first point of the game until the 5 minute mark, when Latesa McLaughlin hit a freethrow making the score 6-1. Millington's Michelle Brown contributed in a big way in the first assisting McLaughlin with points by scoring 6 and grabbing 4 rebounds.
1st quarter: Houston 10 Millington 7
In the second quarter, Houston for some reason stopped feeding the ball to Watkins and Millington went to work behind 11 second quarter points from Jasmine Newsome including 3 for 5 shooting from behind the arch. Ending the half 26-20.
During the first half, Millington ran a zone which pretty much matched up their shorter guards against Sarah Watkins. In the second, Ashley Robinson had the role of mirroring Sarah and she gave Watkins problems. Houston only score 6 points in the third. All by Sarah Watkins with 4 coming from the freethrow line. Millington went up by 10 with a score of 36-26.
During the fourth, Houston went on a run cutting the lead to 3. The advantage seem to go Houston's way especially after 3 questionable charges called against Millington. However, the veteran squad pulled it out. Millington wins 46-41.
Millington's top scorers were Jasmine Newsome with 18 and Michelle Brown with 12 points 9 rebounds. Sarah Watkins for Houston had 21 points 9 rebounds.
