A well-balanced attack led Trinity Christian over Varsity Opponent in every quarter on their way to victory on Saturday. Given that consistent dominance, it should come as no surprise that the Trinity Christian Tigers blew Varsity Opponent out of the water with a 54-13 final score. The Tigers have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won 15 matches by 20 points or more this season.

Trinity Christian's success was the result of a balanced attack that saw several players step up, but Riley Burnham led the charge by going 6 for 11 to rack up 14 points in addition to seven steals and five boards. Burnham is on a roll when it comes to steals, as she's now grabbed two or more in the last 16 games she's played. Macey Skinner was another key player, going 7 of 13 on her way to 14 points and eight rebounds.

Trinity Christian smashed the offensive glass and finished the game with 19 offensive boards. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now pulled down at least 11 offensive rebounds in 13 consecutive games.

Trinity Christian's victory was their 15th straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 25-5.

Looking ahead, Trinity Christian will be taking part in a tournament against Greenville Christian Academy at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday. Trinity Christian's defense has only allowed 28.2 points per game this season, so Greenville Christian Academy's offense will have their work cut out for them.
