Van Rixel led four Blue Jays in double figures with 17 points, 11 of which came in the first half. Lavicka scored 14, Sophia Coker scored 11 of her 12 points in the first half and Hartwig scored eight of her 11 in the opening half.

On the positive side for the Redmen, they held forward McKennzie Schug, who had scored 37 points against them inside in the two regular-season meetings, to just two points in Saturday’s meeting.
