During the 19-2 run, five different RedHawks scored, highlighted by seven points from Tretter.
Miami maintained an eight-point advantage, 37-29, with 4:14 left in the third quarter. A jumper from Tretter pushed the lead to double digits and moments later Scalia and de Vries drilled back-to-back triples. Miami added a free throw and another three-pointer from Macie Taylor made it 49-29 entering the final stanza.
The RedHawk rout continued into the fourth. Taylor and Singer each drilled triples in the first two minutes of the fourth and Scalia added a bucket from behind the arc midway through the quarter to make it 58-29 with 5:37 to play. After a pair of Marist free throws, Ashton Elley connected on a three-pointer (her first points of the year) to give Miami a 30-point advantage.
