WINONA LAKE, Ind. - Grace's men's basketball team opened up the Terry Polston Hoops for Hope with a dominant 107-61 victory over Silver Lake on Friday.

All 14 healthy Lancers scored a point with five players reaching double digits. As a team, the Lancers shot 56 percent from the floor and had 25 assists on 39 made field goals.

The Lancers improved to 7-0 on the season and will look to make it eight straight on Saturday. Grace wraps up the home tournament at 4 p.m. against Emmaus.

In the first half, Grace was deadly with its shooting touch. Grace shot a blistering 73 percent from beyond the arc, making 8-of-11 on 3s.
