Amerah Steele put down 14 points in her first match as a Blue Raider while Sydnie Hall recorded 12 points. The Blue Raiders did well in the opening quarter of play as Oldham took charge coming out of the gate to score eight of the team's 19 points in the first half. As the quarter progressed, both teams swapped the lead back and forth before the Blue Raiders were able to hang onto a 19-17 advantage heading into the second quarter. The hosts grew more comfortable into the game as the second quarter progressed outscoring the Blue Raiders 17-8 at the mid-point of the second quarter. The Blue Raiders didn't let their poor scoring discourage them, as they rallied to put on a small run of 12 points just before the break to take a 39-36 halftime lead.
