At the half, Tronin' Yo had built a small lead 29-19 but had weathered several runs by Dream. However, in the second half, the game started to get interesting.

However, even after a 27 point quarter, Tronin' Yo were not going to let this one slip away. Key baskets from Melanie Belore (#4), and a calming presence from Alisha Tatham (#11), Tronin' Yo defeated Dream 69-63 and took BWT's Winter 2012 Women's Division Championship Game. MVP for the Finals went to Tronin' Yo's (#11) Alisha Tatham who finished with 24 points, 2 steals, 9 asssists and 10 rebounds.
