Allendale, MI – The Grace Tigers found themselves within reach for the majority of the game at Grand Valley State University (NCAA DII) Wednesday night, but the Lakers put together a 12-0 run around the 8 minute mark of the second half to cruise to an 87-70 victory.

Junior Brandon Winchester-Jones led the Tigers with 19 points, followed by 15 from fellow junior Austin Jackson.  Senior Bernard Smith had a double-double with 10 points and 11 rebounds.

Grace will have a week off before returning to action in Grayson, Kentucky at the Kentucky Christian Super 8 Classic next Thursday, along with the women's basketball team.
