The Eagles shot a scorching 84.6% (11-13) in the third quarter, as they led 78-48 heading into the final quarter of play.

Five Kirkwood players finished in double figures led by sophomore Ashley Tull's game-high 18 points and 10 rebounds. Sophomore Kortney Drake and freshman Maddie Paulsen both finished with 13 points apiece.  Tatiana Hodges-Johnson added 12 points and Dominque Rodriguez chipped in 11 off the bench.
