JOPLIN, Mo. - Great Lakes Christian College men's basketball won its first game at the NCCAA DII national quarterfinals on Thursday, knocking off eight-seed Emmaus Bible College 90-63 in the quarterfinal.

The second half continued much like the first, with Great Lakes continuing to build its lead en route to clinching a semifinal berth.
