Game 2: Fort Scott (Kan.) Community College 77  CCC 62

The Raiders kept close with the Greyhounds in the first two quarters, trailing 30-28 at halftime. Fort Scott then outscored CCC in the third period, 36-9, and cruised to the victory.

Madisen Jelinek scored a season-high 25 points while Makenna Pelster scored 10 points off the bench.

"Overall, I thought this weekend was a good learning experience for us," said CCC head coach Kasi Stoltz. "To be able to play against some teams that are a little bigger than us and still compete a high level was nice to see. I was proud of how we still battled both games, especially with limited bodies right now with some injuries and sickness. Hopefully, we will learn from some of our mistakes, and we look to bounce back this weekend."
