The contest between them and the New Covenant Gryphons wasn't particularly close, with the Grace Christian School Kings falling 46-31.

Jocelyn Walker had a dynamite game for New Covenant, posting 22 points along with six steals. What's more, Walker also racked up three threes, the most she's had since back in January. Another player making a difference was Ellie Jacobs, who earned four points in addition to ten steals and five assists.
