The Huskies also outrebounded FSU 57-29 for the night.

Ferris State received 13 points from sophomore guard Adrienne Anderson, but she was the lone FSU player to reach double-digits. Senior guard Alexis Bush added eight points in the effort.

Michigan Tech was paced by Cassidy Trotter's game-high 18 points with Hannah Hobson chipping in 14 points and Abbie Botz notching 13 points overall.
