Josie Nies (Platteville, Wis./Platteville) buried a three-pointer just 17 seconds into the season to put UWSP up early.  After a back-and-forth quarter, Abbie Campion (Janesville, Wis./Milton) drilled a three in the closing seconds as the Pointers were ahead 24-19 after one.
 
Gawlitta and Greenheck combined for 11 points as the Pointers held a steady lead in the second quarter.  Campion again nailed a three-pointer in the final minute to put UWSP in front 40-32 at the half.
 
Nies put up UWSP first five points of the third quarter. Schoenike added four points as the Pointers outscored the Green Knights 15-6 in the quarter.
 
Slowik hit a couple buckets in the fourth.  Gawlitta and Greenheck moved into double figures with a basket each in the final stanza as UWSP rolled to the finish line and the win.
