But then Foxborough's press defense took over in the second quarter, forcing an onslaught of KP turnovers and errant passes. The result was a 25-8 quarter for Foxborough to take a 35-18 lead into halftime.

The third quarter was much more contested but Foxborough outscored KP in the frame, 16-14 to take a 51-32 lead into the final frame. Snyder was forced to come out midway through the quarter with a cut on her finger that was bleeding. She came back in the fourth to help put the game out of way before giving way to the Warriors bench in the closing minutes.
