Liva, a 6-foot-2 senior center, was 8 of 14 from the free-throw line. Mililani led 18-8 after the first quarter and 29-19 at halftime. They held a 40-23 advantage after three quarters.

Radford, which finished sixth in the OIA, was paced by 16 points from Jasmine Moody and 12 by Courtney McCreary.

It was the second meeting of the teams this season. Mililani beat Radford 54-27 in a regular-season game back on Jan. 7.
