Carroll came out of the locker room to start the 3rd and began to establish the inside game with Ella Collison who led the Tigers with 14 points.

A bucket by Addison Klocke late in the 3rd cut it to 42-38 and Carroll looked good heading to the 4th.

Zimmer hit a big 3 early in the 4th extending the Comets lead to 51-43. She finished with a game high 20 points.
