How it Happened:
After Goucher opened the scoring, senior Raven Hunter got the Chargers on the board with a layup two minutes in. Later in the quarter, freshman Miriam Spender had a good jumper in the paint, then Lancaster Bible took the lead on made free throws from freshman Emily Wilson and junior Isabella Eufemia, with the score being tied 11-11 after one quarter of play. Wilson tied the score back up at 13 early in the second with a jumpshot, then the Chargers took the lead 18-17 on a made 3-pointer by freshman Emma Christner, keeping the lead on a Wilson bucket. Goucher scored the final four points of the half, leading by three heading into halftime.
 
The Gophers began the third quarter by extending their lead to eight points, with sophomore Shania Stoltzfus ending the run on a pair of free throws. The Chargers clawed back into the game as Hunter scored a layup, then Wilson knocked down a three to bring it to two. In a final effort in the third, Stoltzfus drained a three off a pass by junior Rachel Nolt, putting the Chargers up 33-32 heading into the final period. The fourth quarter belonged to the Gophers, outscoring LBC 16-7 as some costly turnovers led to a Goucher run that to an eight-point loss for the Chargers on the road.
