While the snow is falling rapidly outside, these two teams are working and grinding for a win. Both Saint Christine and Mater Dei were these two teams and man, did they battle! This matchup was one of the closest in the whole Morrissey Classic. The defense was through the roof with both teams only allowing a combined 37 points. The game was, in fact, very physical with every player on each team recording at least one foul. In the end Mater Dei grinded out the win with a final score of 21-16.

In this battle of the defenses players did shine through with astronomical statistics.
