All of the WCSSAA games on Thursday were decided by at least 11 points, but that didn't mean that I got all my picks correct.In fact, the rapidly-improving Waterloo-Oxford Crusaders went on the road and picked up their first win, defeating SJAM by a 45-34 final score. Tess Pettigrew led the way for the Cruaders with 14 points while Milica Koprivica had 15 for the 'Landers.
