Fort Lewis wasted no time, scoring on the opening possession and establishing a ten-point lead in the first three minutes. A 12-0 run for the Skyhawks closed the half out and sent Dominican into the locker room trailing 45-20. It was all Fort Lewis the rest of the way and the Skyhawks showed why they’re the number eight team in the country. The Lady Penguins were limited to just .267 shooting from the field while Fort Lewis shot .433 for the game.
Sophomore forward Melissa Wise was the lone Dominican player to reach double digits, tallying 11 points in 23 points. Senior center Raquel Gomes added eight points and pulled down a team-high six rebounds. Sophomore guard Kimi Nakamura scored seven points in the loss.
