Maggie Negaard's first 3-pointer of the game started a 9-3 run for St. Thomas to begin the second half, bringing the deficit to six, 47-41. Following back-to-back scores from the Flames, the Tommies finished the third quarter on a 10-4 run, going 5-of-7 from the field, to trail 55-51.
St. Thomas' strong second-half defense continued into the fourth quarter, limiting UIC to nine points over the final 10 minutes. The Tommies went on an 8-1 run over a near three-minute span to nab a 64-60 lead with 1:46 to play. The Flames converted two layups within the final minute to force overtime.
