The home team had come away the winner the last three times Gilbert Christian and Valley Christian had met, but sadly for the fans who attended this one that wasn't the case. The Knights wound up with the same score they had in their last game (7-2), but sadly the team found themselves on the wrong side of the score this time. They were not able to make up for their loss to the Trojans from their previous meeting back in May of 2024.
