We're back today, with a lot to take care of. We'll get things started with the playoff race in WCSSAA's senior girls division.
I had noted that I needed to go 14-0 over the final 2 days of the season to finish above 90%. Looks like I jinxed myself as I struggled to a 5-2 day on Tuesday, thanks in part to the surging Grand River Renegades (beating Eastwood) and the up-and-down Bluevale Knights (beating Elmira).
At any rate, let's get right down to business:
Bluevale 44, Elmira 41
My Pick: BCI
The Knights pick up the big road win and essentially guarantee themselves a home playoff game. Shannon Curran (15) and Elissa Dent (11) led the way; a now-healthy Lydia Frey responded with 14 for Elmira while Kaitie Martin added 9.
WODSS 47, Glenview Park 41
My Pick: WODSS
The Crusaders are still alive in the playoff hunt, though they will need to beat Cameron Heights on Thursday to try and get in. Alyssa Goodridge had 11 for Glenview, while Spencer Mitchell-Becker poured in a game-high 19 points for W-O.
Grand River 40, Eastwood 29
My Pick: ECI
Wow. The Renegades have now won 5-of-6 after dispatching ECI on the road. Aileen MacLellan had 17 for the Rens, while Candice Scott was also in double figures with 11. The Rens also held ECI star Michelle Hudyn to 11 points (Caitlyn Schlegel added 8 for the Rebs as well).
KCI 57, Jacob Hespeler 27
My Pick: KCI
The Raiders have clinched either 2nd or 3rd with the win against JHSS. Kate McTavish (14) and Skye Johns (11) were the leaders on this afternoon, while the Hawks received 12 from Sarah Guttin and 6 from Meaghan Rudd.
Galt 54, Preston 45
My Pick: GCI
The Ghosts win their 8th game of the year, setting up an interesting finale against ECI on Thursday --- the winner gets a first-round bye in the WCSSAA playoffs. Christine Phillips poured in 18 for the Ghosts, while teammate Jessie Lund added 14. Kirsten Leach (13) and Nikea Worrell (12) were again top scorers for the Panthers.
Cameron Heights 53, SJAM 32
My Pick: CHCI
The Gaels moved into double-digit wins, picking up their 10th against just one loss. Camille Gardner had a nice outing for CHCI, with 16 points; Siki Jez added 13 more for Cameron. Malena McCrossan-Moses scored a game-high 20 for the 'Landers.
WCI 62, Forest Heights 42
My Pick: WCI
The Vikes wrapped up the playing part of their season undefeated (they'll be 12-0 with the "bye win" on Thursday). Lindsay Taylor led WCI with 19, while Julia Pavlik also had a "15+" performance with 16 for the Vikes. Sarah Potter netted 17 for the Trojans, with Blair McNaughton and Jocelyn Keeso scoring 10 each.
SSS: Bye Win
So, with that all done with, here are the current standings. We'll add in WCI's Thursday "bye win" as well:

1. WCI 12-0**
T2. KCI 10-1**
