North Central Missouri College dominated from start to finish, putting on a commanding performance in a lopsided victory over St. Louis Community College. With a balanced offensive attack and suffocating defense, North Central shot an impressive 60.2% from the field, overwhelming their opponents, who struggled at just 15.0%.

Honor Mannings led the way, delivering an outstanding performance with 21 points on an efficient 10-of-14 shooting while also grabbing seven rebounds and dishing out four assists. A'Myah Bankston provided a spark off the bench, pouring in 16 points on 7-of-10 shooting, including two three-pointers. Jacie Morris was highly effective, going 5-for-7 from the field to contribute 10 points, while Tailer Morrison also reached double figures with 10 points and seven rebounds.

Jessica Reeter orchestrated the offense with precision, handing out nine assists to go along with five points and four rebounds, while Gladys Brown and Keylie Beane each showcased their defensive prowess with three steals apiece. Defensively, North Central was relentless, forcing St. Louis into 33 turnovers while racking up 27 steals.

Despite their struggles, St. Louis Community College saw a strong effort from Nadiah Thames, who led her team with 13 points, while Johanna Wood added four points and six rebounds. However, their offensive woes proved too much to overcome, as they connected on only six of their 40 shot attempts, including a mere 1-of-14 from beyond the arc.

North Central controlled the glass with a dominant 54-13 rebounding advantage, leading to multiple second-chance opportunities and fast-break scores. Their depth proved key, with multiple players making significant contributions across the board. With such a well-rounded and dominant showing, North Central left no doubt as they cruised to a decisive 110-18 victory.
