WCSSAA Senior Thursday: Vikes Top Raiders; Ghosts Buzzer-Beat Trojans

Thursday's "Three Stars"
1.  Nick Johnny, WCI - 23 points in leading WCI over KCI in the "game of the day".

2.  Kaan Cetinorge, GCI - 14 points and a buzzer-beater winner for the Ghosts over Forest Heights.

3.  Moiz Masud, Southwood - 21 point effort against the ECI Rebels in a near-upset for the Sabres.

Not so fast, KCI.

Facing their toughest remaining test of the regular season, the Raiders dropped a 69-56 decision to the rival WCI Vikings, dealing their hopes for a top-4 seed (and first round bye) a bit of a blow as a win would have almost certainly ensured that outcome.

On the flip side, it was essentially a must-win game for WCI as they finish their regular season against the top three teams in the league --- SJAM, Grand River, and Cameron Heights.

Nick Johnny put home 23 points for the Vikes, with Aaron Grubb adding 12.  With leading scorer Stefan Simic held in check for KCI, it was Marko Milvanovic leading the way (23) and David Ben-Lemotey adding 10.

Down in Cambridge, Kaan Cetinorge's buzzer-beater, part of a 14-point effort, propelled the Galt Ghosts to a 65-63 win over Forest Heights.  The Ghosts certainly appear to be on the upswing as they now have a 3-0 record in 2015 including wins over FHCI & Eastwood.

TJ Lall poured in a game-high 28 for the Ghosts, while Rakesh Arjun had 20 and Tim Gajdos 14 for the Trojans.

In other action:
Eastwood survived a bit of a scare in West Galt, holding off the Southwood Sabres in a 49-45 final.  Cham Ujullu had 20 for the Rebs, with Moiz Masud scoring a game-high 21 for Southwood.

Cameron Heights cruised past Jacob Hespeler in a 57-41 final; Chris Phomsouvanh led the way for the Gaels with 12 while Brandon Roth netted a game-high 26 for Hespeler.

Huron Heights was a 68-23 winner over Elmira, with Hassan Ahmed scoring 20 and Osdautaj Egzon adding 14.  Ryan Bauman was tops for EDSS with 7.

SJAM continued to pace the WCSSAA standings following a 58-32 win over Preston.  Justin Hardy had 17 for the 'Landers to lead the way.
