Junior Amber Downey hit one of two foul shots just past the midway point of the final frame as the Bobcats led by seven, 69-62.
 
At 2:17, Emory hit a layup for an eight-point cushion, 73-65, and Diggs was 6-for-6 down the stretch on foul shots to seal the 12-point win, 80-68.

A quick 5-0 spurt in the second handed Frostburg its largest lead prior to the fourth quarter as Wilson hit a layup at 6:58 for a 28-21 edge. The Lions rebounded for a 35-33 advantage with 40 seconds left but junior Megan Kelly hit a three-pointer with 27 seconds showing that gave Frostburg a 36-35 lead at intermission.
