Kansas City, MO -- February 20, 2026

In the MCCC 5th Place Game, the Emmaus University women's basketball team edged Faith Baptist Bible College 58–57 in a tightly contested matchup Friday morning in Kansas City, Missouri.

After trailing 38–30 at halftime, Emmaus clamped down defensively in the third quarter, holding Faith Baptist to just four points to swing the momentum. The teams battled evenly in the fourth before the Eagles secured the one-point victory.
