With the Blue Demons up by 12 points with 13:30 left in the game, Duffy had two assists, a defensive rebound and a steal in the span of 51 seconds to get the Irish going again, sparking an 18-0 run.

The Irish had built a 37-33 halftime lead but the Blue Demons came out in the second half on an 18-2 run led by three 3 pointers by Jenna Rubino. The Irish kept their composure and started their run. Once the Irish had the lead, Duffy protected it with 10 points over the final 5:15, including six straight free throws. Duffy finished with 23 points, 8 rebounds and 9 assists.

After the game, Irish coach Muffet McGraw declared Duffy the "best point guard in America."
