Senior Night

NLC Storm 54 Masonic Home Red Devils 35
The New Life Storm celebrated Senior Night in style with a 54-35 win over the Lady Red Devils of the Masonic Children's Home. The Storm got off to a blazing start in this game. Rebecca got a layup off the opening tip to give the Storm the lead. Three quick 3-pointers from Hannah Grace and two by Rebecca, mixed with several fast-breaks resulting from steals, put the Storm ahead 25-5 at the end of the first quarter. This was the highest-scoring quarter for the Storm since the Trinity Academy game in early December. The lead grew to as high as 33 points early in the second half before a late flurry of points by the Red Devils in the 4th quarter. Everyone scored at least 2 points for the Storm, led by Hannah Grace and Rebecca with 13 and 12 points, respectively. Ryan led in rebounds with 9.

This was the last home game for Ryan, who was honored in a ceremony at halftime. Her leadership and her play on the court will be missed as she moves on to college next year.
