The Spiders finished the game shooting 32.8 percent (19-for-58) and only 33.3 percent (4-for-12) from the free throw line. The Billikens outrebounded Richmond, 44-29, and scored 30 of their 78 points in the paint.

In the first quarter, the Spiders went on a 9-0 run after Saint Louis scored the first basket of the game. Hinds-Clarke hit a couple of jumpers and Ruffin hit a three-pointer with 6:48 left in the quarter.
The Billikens answered with a quick 7-0 run in less than a minute after a fast break layup by Ciaja Harbison tied the game at 9-9.
