Rachael Beitz (20) and MacKeely Shantz (15) combined for 35 points as the Waterloo-Oxford Crusaders improved to 10-0 in WCSSAA Junior play following a 46-38 win at SJAM yesterday afternoon.Olivia Moreau led the Highlanders with 11 points.
With the win, WODSS snapped SJAM's 22 game league winning streak, and 24 game league + playoff win streak. The Crusaders, meanwhile, now have the league's longest winning streak overall including playoffs (the 10 games this year), and the longest regular season win streak (19 games) which dates back to October, 2014 --- a loss to, you guessed it, SJAM.
In other games on Tuesday:
KCI 40, Southwood 19
The Sabres hung around for a bit against the Raiders in this one, with some second-chance opportunities helping them stay within 6 (21-15) midway through the third. It was all KCI from there, though, as they finished the game on a 19-4 run. Both teams had balanced scoresheets -- Grace Mickie (7), Maggie McLean (6) and Mikaela White (6) led KCI while Vanessa Fita, Nia Ehrenberg, and Jamie Syms had 4 each for the Sabres.
Grand River 32, Eastwood 20
The Rens improved to 6-4 with a win over ECI. Madeline Clarke had 10 and Jenna Crawford 9 for GRCI; Hannah Bradshaw netted 10 for the Rebs.
Bluevale 28, Galt 23
Both teams are now 4-6 after this result; Avery Webster scored 13 for the Knights while Juleyanna Dunlop had a game-high 14 for the Ghosts.
Glenview Park 37, Jacob Hespeler 32
Katelyn Kivell had 10 points as the Panthers improved to .500 with a win at Hespeler. Sonja Matthews had a tremendous effort, as she poured in 25 points for JHSS in the loss.

Kara Day scored 7 and Mariah Zervos added 6 as the Gaels toppled Forest Heights on the road. Alannah Spurling had 7 to lead the Trojans.
WCI 39, Preston 34
Another day, another fine effort by Adri Kellerman, who scored 26 points in WCI's victory. Sam Marson had 9 to lead the way for the Panthers. After starting 1-6, the Vikes have now reeled off 3 straight wins to sit on the "plus side" of the playoff cut-off line -- although their last two games are against WODSS & EDSS.
Elmira 37, Huron Hts. 14
Natalie Mayer had 15 and Kodylyn Tanner added 8 as the Lancers essentially secured a first-round playoff bye with the win, moving to 8-2 and 2 games clear of the teams tied for 5th at 6-4. Michelle M'Carthy had 7 for HHSS.
