By halftime, TCU maintained a solid advantage, leading 35-24—a lead they would not relinquish as it never fell under 10 points for the remainder of the game.

The fourth quarter saw TCU explode offensively, scoring the first 18 points, while Incarnate Word struggled, missing 16 consecutive shots during a stretch that bridged the third and fourth quarters. In addition to Van Lith and Prince, Madison Conner also played a vital role for TCU, putting up 17 points and nailing four 3-pointers.
