Third Quarter Barrage Leads Rocky Women’s Basketball to 73-65 Victory

DICKINSON, N.D.- Sydney Dethman scored twelve of her game-high twenty points in the third quarter to cap a perfect night from the field as Rocky battled for an eight-point victory in Dickinson. 

How it Happened
Paige Wasson was electric from downtown in the first quarter, sinking three-pointers on three straight possessions to extend Rocky's early lead to eight in the first quarter. 

The Battlin' Bear defense was excellent in the second quarter, holding the Blue Hawks without a made field goal for nearly seven minutes of action. Despite a late run by Dickinson State, Rocky held a six-point lead at the halftime break. 

In the third quarter, the Rocky women made their winning run, as the Battlin' Bears tallied 28 points following the halftime break. Sydney Dethman was the key contributor in the quarter, as she rattled off ten straight points for Rocky during the quarter, helping extend the lead to as large as 22 points. 

While Dickinson State got hot from the field in the fourth quarter, hitting four threes and shooting over 50% from the field, the Battlin' Bears were able to withstand the run thanks to their sizeable lead to secure their 13th straight win over the Blue Hawks. 

Notable Statistics
Sydney Dethman finished the contest with a game-high 20 points on a perfect 6-of-6 shooting from the field, 3-of-3 from three-point range, and 5-5 from the free throw line. Paige Wasson added 16 points, including four three-pointers, and Illiana Moran and Isabelle Heggem each finished in double figures, scoring 11 and 10 points, respectively.

Gracee Lekvold contributed heavily on the defensive end, grabbing five rebounds and swiping six steals in the win. 

Samantha Oase and Kayden Steele both scored 13 points to lead Dickinson State. 

Up Next
Rocky Women's Basketball (5-2) will be back in action Saturday afternoon against Valley City State University, tipping off at 1:00 pm in Dickinson.
