Setting the pace for the game was Deanna Mataseje, who swiped the ball and took it down the court to find the basket, in the first 20 seconds. The Marauders took off from there. Holding a 9-0 run, Button made a great fake and saw the lane to Sophia Urosevic wide open. Urosoveic then clocked in the three. The first year was 3-3 from the three point scope, which held responsible for all her points in the quarter.
