Looks like things might be a little more interesting in WCSSAA than I first anticipated entering September.
The Bluevale Knights have established themselves as a serious contender for one of the two AAAA CWOSSA berths, after derailing the Elmira Lancers 63-31 on the road last night. Grade 11 guard Natalie Bishop poured in 23 points in that one.
The WCI Vikings and Cameron Heights Golden Gaels also continued their winning ways, as they stayed undefeated with their respective victories.
Here's a rundown:
WCSSAA Senior
Preston 56, Forest Heights 50
My Pick: PHS
Veteran Panthers Kirsten Leach (25) and Nikea Worrell (16) combined for 41 points as the Panthers got a big win at home on Thursday. Blair McNaughton netted 16 for the Trojans, while Ali White had 6.
WCI 57, Galt 21
My Pick: WCI
WCI wins another big one --- though the 36 point margin of victory actually equalled their "smallest win" to this point in the season. Lindsay Taylor (13) and Lindsay Lessard (10) had the double-digit performances for the Vikes, while Melica Stevanovic (4) and Suzanna Lam (3) topped the GCI scoring.
Jacob Hespeler 43, SJAM 28
My Pick: JHSS
Scoring details weren't submitted, but the Hawks keep rolling at the expense of the winless 'Landers.
Eastwood 50, Huron Heights 20
My Pick: ECI
ECI's Michelle Hudyn didn't eclipse the 30-point mark for the first time this year (21 points; she's still averaging 31.0 PPG), but the Rebs obviously didn't need that much from her in this one. Meagan Karai added 14 for ECI, while Emily Bidinosti again led HHHS with 10. Melissa Wightman had 6 more for the Huskies.
Southwood 36, Grand River 19
My Pick: GRCI
That will teach me to pick against the high school in my Cambridge neighbourhood. Kayleigh Hutt-Taylor outscored the Rens by herself, pouring in 22 points; Anne Stotesbury added 5. Kailey DeBoer had 9 and Candice Scott 6 for Grand River.
Bluevale 63, Elmira 31
My Pick: EDSS
I couldn't have been more wrong with this pick, but after EDSS knocked of Eastwood, can you really blame me? Natalie Bishop was tremendous for the Knights with the aforementioned 23 points, while Sarah Hamm (11) and Amy Shinkar (6) rounded out the top 3. Krista Weins scored 18 and Julia Frey had 4 for Elmira.
Cameron Heights 45, KCI 30
My Pick: CHCI
The Gaels keep winning at the expense of the (now) 1-3 KCI Raiders. Liz McLellan had another big game, with a 23-point effort; Ashanti Lewis was also in double-figures for Cameron with 13. Nikaya Snell (6) and Isabell Mills (5) led KCI.
Bye Win: GPSS

In a big junior game, the Raiders knock Cameron from the unbeaten ranks. Kelsey Dawe had 16 and Frances Campbell 14 in the win, while CHCI was led by Omnia Osman (12) and Tonisha Lewis (11).
Elmira 35, Bluevale 24
The Lancers are also 3-1 at the expense of the Knights. Last year's defending champs are still searching for their first win ---- although the teams that they have lost to are a combined 12-4. Both teams featured balanced scoring attacks on Thursday; for Elmira, Nicole Cressman had 10, Bailey Bond netted 9 and Karley Sider had 8. BCI received 6 each from Jill Beingessner and Julia Curran, while Rachel Matthews scored 4.
Grand River 56, Southwood 41

In a squeaker, the Rebs improve to 2-1. Sam Legue (10) and Mel Samuel (9) led the way; Huron received 19 from Jenna Gangl and 6 from Katrina Kostecki.
Jacob Hespeler 48, SJAM 41
Big win for the Hawks as they improve to 2-2 while dropping the 'Landers to the same mark. Again, the Wrights did the bulk of the damage for JHSS with Courtney Wright scoring 20 and Candice Wright adding 14. Brianna Iltshishin (16) and Safina Husein (10) were the top SJAM scorers.
WCI 37, Galt 13
After coming close to missing the playoffs last year, the WCI Vikings are back on top of the junior circuit. Kaylee Anagnostopoulos (15) and Isabella Kellerman (12) were the top scorers on Thursday. The Ghosts received 7 from Courtney Davis and 6 from Kadja Mohamed to account for their points.
Forest Heights 38, Preston 14
Shannon Scott scored 10 and Tameika Elliot added 8 as the Trojans continued their early season roll. Hayley McGoldrick (4) and Alex Fisher (4) topped PHS.
