Basketball Game Preview: Amelia Academy Patriots vs. Grace Christian School Kings

The Amelia Academy Patriots will face off against the Grace Christian School Kings at 4:00 p.m. on Monday. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W'.

After dropping their season opener at home, Grace Christian School is headed out to face a Patriots team ready to give their home crowd a win. Amelia Academy was dealt a 58-19 loss at the hands of Fuqua last Wednesday. The Patriots haven't had much luck with the Falcons recently, as the team has come up short the last seven times they've met.

Amelia Academy's defeat shouldn't obscure the performances of Harper Garza, who posted three points in addition to six rebounds and four blocks, and Kate Poore, who earned no points.

Meanwhile, Grace Christian School came up short against Fuqua on Friday and fell 47-40.

Despite the loss, Grace Christian School saw an underclassman step up: sophomore Samantha Kennedy put up 14 points along with seven boards and seven steals. The team also got some help courtesy of Taylor Caddell, who had eight points.
