The Tiffin University women's basketball team fell behind early by as much as 16 points, and were unable to recover, and the Ohio Dominican Panthers were able to escape with a 81-75 victory.

Early in the game, the iron was unkind to the Dragons. Tiffin's shooting percentage sank to as low as 12.5%, but on the other side of the floor, the Panthers were capitalizing on TU turnovers. ODU had 39 points in the 1st half, 12 coming from turnovers, and 14 came in the paint. Ohio Dominican finished the half shooting 46.4%, but the Dragons were able to catch fire and closed the gap quickly. At the 10:18 mark in the 1st half, the Panthers held a 20-4 lead, but Tiffin never gave up, outscoring ODU 31-19 the rest of the half.

The Dragons used a Kaylee Patton layup to cut their deficit to two points, but the Panthers rattled off 10 straight points to create some separation. The Ohio Dominican lead stayed at nine or more points for the majority of the half. That all changed at the five minute mark, as the Dragons went on an 8-0 run to get within two points. ODU was able to regroup and sank a jumper to lead by four, but the Dragons did not go down without a fight. A Jordan Fraley jumper cut the Panther lead to two points again, but this time ODU didn't look back. The Panthers sank key free throws down the stretch to escape with a 81-75 win.

The Dragons were led in scoring by Kaylee Patton and Jordan Fraley with 15 points each. Deidre McKay had quite a game, scoring 14 points on 4 of 4 shooting behind the arc, added 6 boards, and dished out 6 assists. Bre Nauman missed another double-double by a single rebound, but finished with 11 points and 9 rebounds.

The loss drops the Dragons to 7-21 overall and 6-16 in GLIAC play.
