WBB Earns First Win of the Season

LANSING, Mich. - The Great Lakes Christian College Women's Basketball team was back in action Saturday as they took on Glen Oaks CC in a non conference matchup. The Lady Crusaders jumped out on the Vikings early takeing 15-7 lead in the first quarter. The Crusaders were able to maintain that lead headed into the half with a 26-17 advantage at the break.

The duo combined for 38 points and 19 rebounds and 6 assists in the 60-58 win.
