McGraw scored a team-high 15 points as P.K. Yonge advanced to the Class 4A state semifinals with a 51-35 win against visiting University Christian (Jacksonville).

The freshman was 6-of-13 from the floor. She added seven rebounds, one assist and one steal.
P.K. Yonge will face Carrollwood Day (Tampa) (27-3) in the Class 4A state semifinals on Wednesday, February 28, marking the 16th trip overall to the state tournament.
