OFSAA: Nice Start For Green Eagles; Celtics Come Close To Upset

Kendra Van Leeuwen poured in 23 points as the #2-ranked St. John's Green Eagles raced past #11 Campion (Brampton) in their opening round game of the OFSAA "AAA" Championships here in Windsor, 55-41.

The Green Eagles led by only 6 at half, but gradually extended their lead to double-digits in the second half, a lead that they were able to maintain.

St. John's will take on St. Mary's College (#17 seed - Sault Ste. Marie) in the second round today.  Win that, and they would advance to the Quarterfinals (OFSAA medal game) against a team ranked no higher than #9.

Bishop Mac, the #16 seed at "AA", gave the #6 seed a run before losing their opener, but the Celts rebounded in time to win their second game, an elimination tilt against #18 Libermann that saw BMAC win going away, 61-26.  Sophia Nash led the Celts with 17 points, and helped them advance to today's play against #1 Theriault.

At "A" OFSAA, #15 Peninsula Shores dropped their opener to #5 O'Gorman, 48-28.  They are underway right now against #2 Westminster, where they currently trail 50-18 after three quarters of play.
