With fall sports slowly coming to an end, only a couple teams had games to report last week.
Oct. 29, the junior girls basketball team had an amazing game against Sandalwood. With losses all season, the girls finally came out on top and proved that they were there to play. They brought home a 26-15 win in their final season game. Point scorers were Alexis Viveiros, Giselle Fernenback, Victoria Lucas and Arielle Neil.
“Giselle scored a three-point ‘buzzer beater’ to end the first half,” stated coach Burgess.
The coaches would like to thank all the girls for their hard work and determination throughout the season, finally earning the win they deserved. Victoria Lucas earned player of the game honours and was a strong leader on the team throughout the season. Coaches hope to see all girls out next year and wish good luck to the players moving up next year.
Next, we have the varsity boys’ football team, who brought the speed of lightening to their game against the St. Michael Thunder Oct. 30. The boys were fired up to play their final season game, when a win would mean the boys would carry on to the playoffs but a loss would do them no good. Jordan Baggio, Josh van Amel Svoort and Quinn Wheeldon proved that the Thunder was nothing but noise, and shut them down on defence. Although the Wolfpack did not play a strong offensive game, their defence was fantastic. Gabe Siemienic earned the team a field goal and a rouge, putting the Pack on the board with a score of 4-1. Congratulations to Quinn Wheeldon for earning player of the game recognition and shutting down every attempt made by the Thunder.
