After being down 24-26 at halftime, and struggling out of the gate in the second half, the Wildcats came roaring back from a 38-27 deficit at 14:17.  Eventually taking the lead at the 8:20 mark, they never looked back in a 70-60 winning effort over St. Mary's.

Madison Pertler was the spark, coming off the bench and scoring 8 points in a row to lead the comeback.  She finished with 12 points and 2 rebounds in 10 minutes of play in the half.  Shooting a stellar 100% from the field including 2-2 from 3-point range and adding to her spotless shooting, going 2-2 from the free throw line.

St. Mary's was led by Jess Miller, who put up a game-high 21 points and pulled down 6 rebounds. 

The Wildcats shot 55% from the field in the second half and 40% from 3-point range in the comeback.

SCU is back on the floor Wednesday night at 6:00 p.m. when they take on Concordia College in the Butler Center.
