The Knights held a one-point lead at halftime and pushed it to five after winning the third quarter, 12-8. 

They then took control by scoring the first 11 points of the fourth quarter to take a 46-30 advantage. 

San Diego City shot 50% on 8-of-16 shooting in the final quarter and held Grossmont to 28.6%. The Knights also forced Grossmont into 11 fourth-quarter turnovers, while committing only one themselves. 

Lewis scored seven of her points in the fourth, including a 3-pointer, and St. Julian added six points as City's lead ballooned to as many as 26. 

The Knights outscored Grossmont 141-84 in the two contests this season. 

Friday night's PCAC finale at Harry West Gym is part of a doubleheader with the men's team going first at 5 p.m. vs. MiraCosta. Both games will be live-streamed on the Knights' YouTube channel.
