Birmingham Brother Rice leaned on shot-making and composure late to secure a 59–52 win over Grand Rapids Northview in a competitive matchup. Greg Grays Jr. delivered the difference-making performance, pouring in 23 points on efficient shooting (8–14 FG, 5–9 from three) while adding four rebounds and three assists. His ability to score at all three levels consistently answered Northview runs and kept Brother Rice in control. Jordan McDaniel added 12 points and a steal, while Jacob Lamb provided strong all-around production with nine points, seven rebounds, three assists, and two steals. Trevor Smith anchored the interior with a physical effort, posting 10 rebounds, six assists, and two blocks to impact the game beyond the box score.

Northview was powered by an outstanding performance from Cam Ryans, who finished with a game-high 28 points on 10–18 shooting, including 3–4 from deep, while also grabbing nine rebounds and adding a block and a steal. Brayden Williams chipped in 10 points and three rebounds, helping Northview stay within striking distance throughout. Despite Ryans’ scoring surge, Brother Rice’s balance, defensive discipline, and timely shot-making down the stretch proved decisive, as they closed out a hard-fought win against a resilient Northview squad.
