In the third quarter the Blazers continued to fly and pull away from the Scotties. With just under 5 minutes left in the third quarter the Blazers worked their way out to a 30-point lead on a made three by Shantashia John. As the game came to a close in the fourth quarter Belhaven was able to keep the hosts at bay and secured their first win in the inaugural CCS campaign with a 74-53 victory.
