Trinity Bible College vs FLBC

Recap

In a very similar game to the previous night, the Lady Conquerors and the Trinity Lions played a very close contest with a tense finish. This time, the Lions got the best of the Conquerors with a 57-54 final that was decided in the last minute. Madison Trussoni again hit a big three with under 3 minutes to play, but the Lions responded with a 3 of their own to tie the game late. In the end, it came down to some clutch free throws by Stacia West to gain the lead and to seal the victory for the Lions. West accounted for over half of the Lions points in the game as she finished with 32 on the night, including 10 for 10 from the free throw line. Jena Sidle chipped in 12 points with Kennedy Nofzinger adding 10 assists. The Conquerors managed a more balanced attack with 9 individual players scoring in the game, led by Madison Trussoni with 14, Bobbi Jo Alverson with 9, and Grace Dryburgh with 8. Alverson also had a big night on the boards, grabbing 11 rebounds including 5 on the offensive side. With the victory, the Lions also held off the Conquerors for 5th place in the final NIAC standings.
