What a battle tonight for the Bears!

 In a nail-biter against a talented Jack Barrack squad, the Bears burst out to an early lead before slipping behind by a single basket in the first quarter—but they never backed down. They kept the game within three possessions all night and roared back late, cutting the deficit to just one bucket with under three minutes left in the fourth!

Cydnie Crisden led the offensive charge, topping the team in points while also dominating the deflection and steals column. In the paint, Anaka Boyd-Volz was a force, controlling the glass and racking up rebounds and blocked shots. And tonight’s Game MVP? None other than Milan Moriniere, who logged major minutes and absolutely locked up Barrack’s leading scorer in the second half. After the game, Milan summed it up perfectly: “I thought winning a national championship this summer was fire, but being the game MVP is just so much more crispy!”
