Mauricio's floater two minutes into the second made the score 26-18 but the Lions used a 15-0 run to take control of the game. Mullin hit a three to end the quarter, beating the buzzer but the Bears were down 47-26 at the break.
Ducharme scored her five points on back-to-back possessions to start the third quarter and a three by Mauricio cut the lead to 15. Later in the quarter, Brown got the deficit back to 15 after free throws by Jones but Columbia used another run to go up 68-45 after three quarters.
The Bears held a 17-15 advantage in points off turnovers, forcing 21 turnovers. Brown was outscored 42-28 in the paint.
