These games were the first time KC had ever had its games live on ESPN+.

Nyla Inmom led all KC players with 14 points. Other Lady Rangers in double figures were Aaliyah Davis (13), Ma'Kaila Lewis (12) and Jermia Green (11). Lewis added 10 rebounds to earn a double double.
 
In the men's game, KC led by as many as 14 points in the first half, but TVCC stormed back in the second half to take the lead late and hold on for the 76-70 victory.
 
DaVeon Thomas led all Rangers with 25 points. Joe Manning (15 points) and Terrance Dixon (12 points) were also in double figures.
