Leading the charge was Erianna Moeschter, who poured in 22 points on an efficient 10-of-14 shooting while adding seven rebounds. Whitney Sullivan added 11 points, and Dasia Foster provided a spark off the bench with 10 points in just 10 minutes.
Molly Roling knocked down three triples on her way to nine points, while Madison Stowater controlled the glass with a game-high 11 rebounds to go along with six points. Bra'Ja Torry orchestrated the offense with nine assists, helping Kirkwood rack up 24 assists as a team.
