at 15 at the end of the first quarter, but as the 2nd quarter began the Lady Tigers started to gain a little seperation from the hometown team. The Lady Greyhounds would struggle to get the ball in the hoop as they only converted 2 of their 15 shot attempts in the quarter. The Lady Tigers would use that to their advantage to take a 9 point lead into intermission.

Once the 3rd quarter got underway, the Lady Tigers of Northeast really put their foot on the gas scoring 31 points in the 3rd quarter behind three 3 pointers from Jakeria Hawkins. Northeast Mississippi would outscore ASU Mid-South 31-16 in the 3rd quarter making a comeback really tough for the home team. The 4th quarter was much like the 1st in which is was a close quarter in which the Lady Greyhounds would outscore the Lady Tigers by 1.
