Turning Point
The 8-0 stretch in the first quarter was all that the Seahawks needed to coast to the comfortable victory. With the score tied at 2-2 at the 8:10 mark of the first quarter, the Seahawks soared ahead to take a 10-2 advantage thanks to a combined effort from Claudia Reque, Jamilla Banks Wall and Princess Cole. The eight-point deficit was too much to overcome for the Amcats.
