While Barrow brought a lively and dedicated cheering section to the championship, ultimately Grace Christian School defeated Barrows 35-27.
Once the girls matchup completed, the boys from Nome-Beltz faced a difficult game against undefeated Mt. Edgecumbe and narrowly won 63-61 thanks to a 3-pointer with just two seconds remaining in the game by Orson Hoogendorn.

What’s a Rich Text element?
The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
Blah Blah
Static and dynamic content editing
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
How to customize formatting for each rich text
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
