Record: 30-0
Grace Christian is a perfect 30-0. They have the No. 1-ranked player in the class of 2024. Yet the Crusaders are the sixth and final seed in the Chipotle Nationals?
Something about that feels wrong. It feels like bulletin board material for the squad.
They outscored opponents by just about 30 points per game this regular season. Two-thirds of their wins came against teams with at least 20 wins, and several were against teams with 27 or 28 wins. Grace Christian faced stiff competition as they three-peated the NCISAA championship. It’s been a continuation of dominance for a team that’s gone 91-4 over the last three seasons and is in the midst of a 41-game win streak, according to WNCT.
Sarah Strong averaged 21 points, 16.7 rebounds, 4.6 assists, 2.8 steals and 1.8 blocks per game this year, according to the outlet. She’s looking to lead her team to consecutive wins No. 42, 43 and 44 before graduating and deciding on a collegiate program.
