GACC then lost 55-35 at Pierce in the Conference Tournament Quarterfinals Tuesday night.
The Bluejays led the Raiders 8-7 after one. Mead outscored GACC 13-8 in the 2nd quarter to take a 20-16 lead into the locker room.

Decent play for GACC in those three games.
The Bluejays (4-14) battle O'Neill (9-9) in a Mid-State Conference Tournament Consolation Game at Norfolk Catholic Friday evening.
The Eagles lost 66-43 to Norfolk Catholic in Tuesday night's Quarterfinal around at Pierce.
O'Neill beat GACC 56-49 at home on Friday, January 22nd.
That was a close game, and I think the Bluejays have a shot to win this time around.
If GACC wins on Friday they would play for 5th place on Saturday at Battle Creek.
Beating O'Neill would be good so the Bluejays can get another game in.
GACC did a nice job taking care of business early on against Crofton.
I kind of have mixed thoughts on Tuesday's game.
I feel like GACC did some nice things, but losing by 20 to Pierce is not something GACC is going to accept given the expectations for their program I am sure.
At any rate, Friday night's game is scheduled to tip-off at 5:30 p.m. in Norfolk.
The GACC Girls steamrolled Mead 81-38 at home Thursday night in action aired on 107.9 the Bull before waxing Wayne 68-30 in the 1st round of the Mid-State Conference Tournament at home Monday night.

The Bluejays (17-2) take on Hartington Cedar Catholic (11-6) in the Mid-State Conference Tournament Semifinals at Battle Creek Thursday night.
The Trojans beat Pierce 46-38 in Monday night's Quarterfinals at GACC.
GACC beat Cedar Catholic 51-47 at home last Saturday.
The Bluejays must really bring it this time around against the Trojans.
GACC has to play better than they did in the first meeting if they want to win.
The Bluejays must be at their best and on top of their game.
I anticipate GACC meeting Crofton in the Championship Game on Saturday at Battle Creek.
The Bluejays have to take care of business against Cedar Catholic first to get there though.
Tip-off is scheduled for 5:30 p.m. in Battle Creek.
