Mercer was 52 percent from the field and went 10-for-20 from 3-point range. Erin Houpt made half of Mercer's 3-pointers on her way to scoring 18 points to go with four rebounds and two assists.
The Bears had 15 assists in the game, with 13 coming in the second half.
Defensively the Bears had a season-high nine blocks to go with eight steals. Ashlee Locke led the Bears with three blocks and also had a solid night offensively with eight points on 4-for-5 shooting.
