Holley did close the gap to seven at 26-19 late in the final period after an 11-2 run which included baskets by Tatum Gagne, Halee Passarell, Hayley Skidmore and Jailyn Bishop but the Lady Hawks could get no closer.
Julie Coble answered with a three for Kendall to lock up the win for the Lady Eagles.
Brown finished with 8, Coble and Snyder 7 each, Lauren Pilon 4, Allen 3 and Grace Robinson 1 for Kendall.
