In a battle between 6-0 junior teams yesterday at St. David, the Resurrection Phoenix were able to hold off the pesky St. David Celtics by a 41-30 final, remaining as the league's lone unbeaten team.
St. David's offensive abilities -- led by Naomi Cruz with 12 points -- helped them maintain contact with Rez and not let this one get away from them against the favoured Phoenix. In fact, St. David's 30 points marked the first time this season that a team had scored more than 20 against Resurrection in league play.
Sydney Gucker-Wickie (9) and Haley MacArthur (7) were Resurrection's top scorers.
There was one other junior game on Wednesday, which saw Woodland defeat Rockway by a 21-11 final. Alanna Parker had 8 for the Cavs, while Kat Dyck Steinman netted 5 for the Flames.
For Woodland, that win keeps their playoff hopes alive and also clinches them a berth in the CWOSSA "A" tournament; they have now won both regular season meetings against RMC ensuring that they will finish no lower than 5th.
