Adijat Adams (20 pts, 11 reb) and Toccara Ross (13 pts, 6 reb, 4 ast) led from the front in the 71-55 loss.
The absence of point guard Steph Gorman was less than ideal for the Lady Bandits, but Montana Farrah-Seaton stepped up in her absence, registering eight points and six rebounds in her first game for the club since 2015.
Olivia Barber showed she will become a player to watch, with an impressive eight-point, six-rebound performance off the bench.

The Lady Bandits were simply outclassed by the Sparks, who shot eight threes to one and hit buzzer beaters to end the first three quarters.
