Grant added his second rushing touchdown of the game in the third quarter scoring on a 32-yard run and finished the night with a 12-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter.
Bishop Rimons scored its only points on a 1-yard touchdown run by Matt Myers to cut the score to 21-7 midway through the second quarter.
