Wyoming, MI – The Grace women's basketball team welcomed NCCAA #3 Kentucky Christian University to town Saturday afternoon in their final home game of the season, scoring an impressive 73-54 win over the Lady Knights in front of a great crowd at the Aldrich Athletic Center.  The ladies jumped out to an 18 - 12 lead at the end of the first quarter. They continued their hot shooting in the second quarter and built up a 38 - 24 half time lead. The Tigers shot 51% from the floor and 35% from the 3 point line while Kentucky shot 35% from the floor and 22% from the 3 point line.

"The seniors played very well," said Grace Head Coach Rich Renzema.  "It was a great way to end their games on the home court."
