Mist Guards Dominate, Phantom Big Shines

Mist secured an 89-71 victory over Rose, largely due to the exceptional backcourt play of Arike Ogunbowale and Allisha Gray. Gray contributed 28 points, reaching the significant milestone of 400 career points in Unrivaled history, while Ogunbowale added 21 points. The team's offense, bolstered by 19 points from Breanna Stewart and efficient three-point shooting, allowed them to build a commanding lead by halftime. Despite a strong effort from Rose's Shakira Austin, who scored 29 points and had 10 rebounds, Mist's offensive firepower proved too much.

In a separate contest, Phantom overcame Vinyl with a 78-69 win, highlighted by Aliyah Boston's dominant performance. Boston recorded a game-high 21 points and 11 rebounds before fouling out late in the fourth quarter. Kelsey Plum provided crucial scoring and energy with 18 points, while Kiki Iriafen added 15 points, including the game-clinching basket. Natasha Cloud also contributed with a balanced effort of 12 points, four rebounds, and three assists. Vinyl's efforts, led by Dearica Hamby's 26 points and Rhyne Howard's 20, were not enough to overcome Phantom's consistent play.
