Wyoming, MI – The Tigers have naturally developed quite the rivalry with regional opponent Johnson University-Tennessee over the past couple seasons as two of the top teams in the NCCAA DII Mideast Region. Friday night Grace welcomed the Royals to town for a Friday night primetime match-up in the 2018 Grace Classic, where they ultimately would prevail 92-84.
"As anticipated, they were a great shooting team, we just withstood their runs and did a good job closing it out down the stretch," commented Assistant Coach Lee Ash.
Junior Brandon Winchester-Jones led the Tigers with 29 points on 11-15 shooting. Austin Jackson added 17 points.
Grace is back at it Saturday morning at 11:00 am, taking on Johnson University-Florida at 11:00 am to close out the 2018 Grace Classic.
