Weekend Basketball Champions
Senior Girls and Senior Boys win weekend tournaments!
Senior Girls Stag Classic
The Senior Girls Basketball team played two strong games on Saturday to capture 1st place in their own “Stag Classic” jamboree.
In the morning game, we played a very tough team from Cedar Secondary School. Our team led most of the way, though the 4th quarter was back and forth. Shawnigan eventually won the game 59-58 in a nail biter. Top scores included Savannah with 22, Emilie with 14, and Nicole with 12.
In the afternoon game we played a Vic High team that was short 3 key players. The team approached this contest as an opportunity for some of the girls to fine-tune their team play. Nicole led the way with 12, Nikkie with 11, and Kathryn with 7.
The three ‘player of the game’ awards went to Rosa, Savannah, and Nikkie. Thanks to all the score keepers and the fans who supported us.
