  • 2nd Half: Jewell extended their lead to 16 midway through the second half as Alexander hit another three. The Stars got as close as 75-85 late in the game but the Cardinals got triples from Nick Bradley and Jackson Golightly while taking advantage of multiple trips to the free throw line to finish with their largest advantage of the day in the final of 110-90.
