Cunningham's layup with 7:38 left in the first half gave the Dutchwomen a 25-15 advantage before the Saints, who entered the game riding the crest of a six-game Liberty League win streak, fought back to take a 30-29 lead into the half.  St. Lawrence, which is now 9-7 overall, led for the first 19:21 of the second half and enjoyed a 13-point margin, 53-40, with 6:19 left to play.
