MACCRAY coach Shaun Condon was the only coach in Class A who submitted that his team shouldn’t be seeded in the top five ahead of the tournament. They’re now playing for a state championship. Incredible.

Following a Macy Grosz 3-pointer, which gave the Knights their largest lead at 32-24, Brielle Janssen converts an and-1. The foul was by Addison Staples, her fourth foul of the game. MACCRAY Athletics

Back-to-back West Central Area possessions result in a Jayden Styba layup and a 3-pointer from Mya Foslien, her first basket after opening 0-10 from the field, after Janssen's and-1. That gives the Knights a 37-27 lead with 13:06 to go. MACCRAY Athletics
