This all-star game, as usual utilizes the hockey-shift format.  The fifteen players on each team were divided into three units, who rotated five minute shifts through the first three 10-minute quarters.  The fourth quarter allows normal substitutions.

 

The first quarter ended in a 20-20 tie but Ohio opened the second quarter on a 20-3 run to take control of the game on their way to a 103-78 victory over their Kentucky counterparts.  Ohio utilized excellent long range shooting (15 three point baskets) to fuel their victory.

 

Hailee Heidemann led Ohio with 17 points including four three point baskets and was named MVP for the Ohio team.  Taylor Mikesell added 12 points on four three point baskets.  Jasmine Hale and Kayla Whitehead each scored nine points.

 

Lexi Held led Kentucky with 10 points and was named their team MVP.  Emmy Souder also scored 10 points.  Shelby Harmeyer, Ally Niece, and Emma Davis added nine, eight, and eight points respectively.
