It was another interesting day in WCSSAA senior girls action, as the playoff picture got slightly clearer after Tuesday's games.
The Grand River Renegades did themselves a huge favour (as a commenter suggested they might) by knocking off the Bluevale Knights at home, 52-37. The Rens are an interesting, and possibly dangerous team going forward as they tend to play to the level of their opposition (i.e. single digit loss vs. Cameron Hts., single digit win against Forest Hts.). Definitely a team I'm sure others would like to avoid in the qualifying round of the playoffs.
Here's the rundown of action:
Grand River 52, Bluevale 37
My Pick: BCI
The Rens received 26 from Aileen MacLellan en route to the aforementioned victory over BCI. Elissa Dent was tops for the Knights with 14 points.
Cameron Heights 64, Forest Heights 51
My Pick: CHCI
A high-scoring affair, this contest had 4 players in total with 18 or more points ---- for Cameron, Erin Robbins (22) and Liz McLellan (18); for Forest Heights, Jocelyn Keeso and Blair McNaughton each had 20.
Eastwood 40, Elmira 37
My Pick: ECI
The Rebs get a scare from the Lancers, but held them off in the end. Michelle Hudyn led ECI with 16, while Erika Gardner chipped in 8 to help get the job done. Cassey Brubacher had 11 for the Lancers, while Kaitie Martin scored 8.
Galt 42, Jacob Hespeler 24
My Pick: GCI
Another excellent game for Liz Phillips, who led Galt with 18 points in this one. Sarah Couchman topped the JHSS scoring on Tuesday with 7.
KCI 48, Preston 30
My Pick: KCI
The Raiders improve to 8-1 on the campaign by handling the Panthers down in Cambridge. Kate McTavish (15) and Susan Gordon (8) were tops for KCI; Nikea Worrell had a game-high 16 for Preston while Kirsten Leach added in 6.
WCI 54, SJAM 26
My Pick: WCI
The Vikes continue to rule the WCSSAA senior circuit after a near 30-point win over the Highlanders. Alex Klein and Julia Pavlik had 13 each for the Vikes, who can be led in scoring on any given night by almost anyone on their roster. Malena McCrossan and Bronwyn Stevens scored 8 each for SJAM.
Southwood 33, WODSS 27
My Pick: SSS
The Sabres do themselves a favour with a key road win at WODSS. Nicole Barnard led the way with a solid 17 point effort, while Alex Palvetzian added in 5. The Crusaders were topped by Shannon Finn and Carly Kowalik, with 6 each.
Bye Win: GPSS
