The Seawolves were defeated by the Saint Martin’s University Saints, 66-51, on Feb. 28 ending their season with a 16-11 record in the GNAC. To have a chance at the final GNAC tournament slot, the Seawolves needed to defeat the Saints. Unfortunately, they fell short. The Saints took an early lead and maintained it throughout the night. The Saints lead grew to 60-30 early in the fourth quarter before the Seawolves rallied back with 16 unanswered points. Ultimately, it was too little, too late and they could not overcome the commanding lead the Saints had gained. 

Before the game, the Seawolves honored their two departing senior players, Elaina Mack and Taylor Searcey, along with their families.
