Heading to the fourth the game was tied at 34.
The fourth quarter saw the Cavalier offense explode for 21 points. Keiyunna Maddox scored nine and Lacey Thomas had seven in the fourth as the duo dominated the Tiger defense. Both players finished with a team high 17 points in the game.
Aniyah McFarland hit two 3-pointers and finished with eight points. Raniya Mahone scored seven and Jailyn Baker had six to round out the scoring for the Cavaliers.
For the Tigers, Brooke Bass had 22 points and Callaway struggled to contain her but limited her teammates ability to generate offense.
