From the onset, the Tigers established dominance with a robust offensive display, netting 27 points in the first quarter and maintaining their momentum throughout. Their aggressive play resulted in a staggering 28 steals and facilitated numerous fast-break opportunities that culminated in 30 fast break points.

The scoring distribution for the Tigers was consistent across all four quarters, showcasing their ability to maintain intensity and focus throughout the game. They capitalized on turnovers by scoring an outstanding 53 points off them, which played a significant role in widening the gap between them and their opponents.


On defense, Auburn was just as formidable. They limited Alabama State to just two points in paint during the first quarter and continued to apply pressure that led to a total of 40 turnovers by their opponents. The Lady Hornets struggled from both close range and beyond the arc, managing only a third of field goals made overall.
