The Pride (22-9) jumped out to an early 19-7 lead and cruised from there in Bradshaw Christian's fourth consecutive Section championship in a row. Senior Jordie Smith, in her fourth Section title game, led the Pride with 17 points. She added 11 rebounds.
Her teammate Lauren Beyer, also a senior, had 14 points and a game-high 13 rebounds.
Brookside Christian, in the program's first girls basketball Section championship, featured a roster of only six players. One of those players, freshman Tiara Tucker, entered the game averaging 35.7 points in the postseason, but was held to 11.
