Junior Girls: Phoenix Dominant In Taking Hespeler Tourney Title

After taking CWOSSA "AAAA" silver a season ago with a (mostly) grade nine roster, the Resurrection Phoenix certainly appear as the early favourites as far as District 8 and even CWOSSA may be concerned.

The Phoenix did it with stifling defense over the weekend, holding their first two opponents (Lourdes & Galt) to a combined 27 points.

In the championship final against the SJAM Highlanders (who I feel are one of the top WCSSAA teams and certainly a top 3/4 team in the CWOSSA region), the Phoenix surrendered the first four points of the game before going on a 31-4 run to end the first half up 31-8.

The Phoenix would go on to win the final by a 47-27 final, with Megan Sharpe scoring 21 and Jama Bin-Edward adding 10 in the victory.  Buse Bin-Edward had a solid defensive outing in the victory.

Joanna Bamberger had a solid game for the 'Landers in the final, with 17 points.

Jama Bin-Edward had double-digit efforts in all three Rez contests, including 10 in the semifinal against Galt (a 39-12 final) and 12 in the opener, a 52-15 win against Lourdes.

Here's the results from the weekend:

Senior Girls: Green Eagles Soar To Tournament Title

The Brantford St. John's College Senior Girls Basketball team was victorious at the 8-team Brantford Invitational Tip-Off tournament, and they did so in impressive fashion this past weekend.

The Green Eagles won their three games by an average of 30 PPG, with the closest margin being a 27-point victory (against both Wallaceburg and WCI).

To be fair, WCI did push the Green Eagles in the first half (11-9 SJC after one and a single-digit lead of 27-19 at halftime) before the depth of the Brantford squad gradually wore down the Vikings in a 58-31 final.

Kendra Van Leeuwen put home 19 points in the victory, while Maddi Cohoon and Megan Thompson added 9 each.

The Green Eagles started their tournament with a win by that same 58-31 score over Wallaceburg DHS, with NCAA D1 Bowling Green assistant coach Jacey Brooks among the observers in attendance.  Thompson had 23 and Van Leeuwen 10 in that victory.

St. John's other victory was a 67-31 defeat of Guelph Bishop Macdonell.  Van Leeuwen (22) and Thompson (18) again paced the way in that one.

Junior Girls: Preston Panthers Capture ECI Rebel Shootout Crown

The Preston Panthers put together a trio of victories over the weekend, culminating with a 36-31 championship victory over the WCI Vikings to take the 2014 edition of the Eastwood Junior Rebel Shootout.

Alayna Johnson (14.0 PPG) was stellar for the Panthers throughout the tournament, who comfortably defeated Eastwood (45-10) and Grand River (40-20) in their two pool games.  Grand River edged Eastwood 27-26 in the other pool game.

Pool "B" saw three very competitive games --- WCI nipped Huron Heights (26-24) before taking out the KCI Raiders in an OT thriller (32-29).  Huron Heights finished 1-1 in pool play with a 29-23 win over KCI.

Huron Heights defeated Grand River 36-27 in OT in a game between teams that finished 2nd place in their pools; KCI edged Eastwood 30-28 in the game between 3rd place pool finishers.

The tournament's leading scorers included Simone Clarke (KCI) at 15.0 PPG, Grand River's Jenna Crawford (14.0 PPG), PHS' Johnson (14.0 PPG), and Ramla Abdalla (WCI) and Blaire Raftis (PHS) who both netted a 9.0 PPG average.

Brantford Expositor: Green Eagles Ready to Defend Title

Article By:  Sean Allen

The St. John’s College Green Eagles were more than prepared to defend their eight-consecutive Brant high school senior girls basketball crowns with the players expected to return. 

When they got news that power forward Megan Thompson would be returning for her fifth and final year of eligibility, it was the icing on the cake. 

“It was a big bonus,” coach Matt Lynch said. “She brings a lot on offence and leadership.” 

Thompson joins a returning core that includes Canadian national team member Kendra Van Leeuwen and fellow returnee Maddi Cohoon. Both girls already have experience on the senior team, despite only being in Grade 11. 

Grade 12 players Leah Coon and Jen Garner will have big roles on offence. The team also boasts three members of last season’s undefeated junior Green Eagles team in Lauren deMontmorency, Alex Girardi and Ashley Derks. 

Van Leeuwen has been developing with the senior team since she was in Grade 9 and will now, for the first time in her high school career, be playing against girls her own age. 

“We’ve been very fortunate to have a lot of talented girls come through the school,” Lynch said. “But it’s not just talent. They have the right attitude and mentality as well.” 

That will be the case again this year, as the Green Eagles take on Grade 9 player Alaina McMillan in her first year of high school. 

Lynch expects another season of strong contention for the title in Brant. He said the strength of the local girls basketball program has helped make the Eagles better competitors at the regional Central Western Ontario Secondary Schools Association tournament each season. 

The Green Eagles won the AAA CWOSSA championship last season and will be aiming to knock off the Brantford Collegiate Institute Mustangs and North Park Trojans for another chance this season. 

The Green Eagles, Mustangs and Assumption College Lions will all have a chance to see plenty of each other this weekend as St. John’s College hosts a high school tournament. 

Five other entries from around the province will join them for the two-day tournament. 

The Green Eagles and Lions will have already had a taste of each other as they meet to tip-off the regular season on Thursday at St. John’s College. The juniors play at 4 p.m. and the seniors at 5:30 p.m.

Jacob Hespeler Junior & Senior Girls Tournament - This Weekend

The Jacob Hespeler Hawks are hosting their annual early-season tournament in Cambridge this weekend; with their two full-size gymnasiums, they are running a junior and senior event concurrently.

First round action will take place on Friday afternoon/evening, with semifinal play going Saturday at Noon and 1:30pm (in both divisions) and the respective championship finals being played at 7:30pm on Saturday.

Here's a look at the draws.....

Junior
On the junior side of things, the Resurrection Phoenix, who I have pegged as one of the top CWOSSA junior teams (returning the majority of their scoring offense from last year's CWOSSA AAAA Silver Medalist squad) appear to be the team to beat entering play this weekend.

In fact, they are in search of back-to-back titles after taking the title at this event last year. SJAM, Bishop Macdonell and Guelph CVI appear to be the other possible title contenders.

First Round - Friday
3:00pm - Resurrection vs. Lourdes
4:30pm - Galt vs. St. Benedict
6:00pm - SJAM vs. Guelph CVI
7:30pm - Bishop Mac vs. Jacob Hespeler

Senior
The Hespeler Hawks are looking to win their home tournament for the second year in a row, and they would appear to be the favourites entering play here.

I'd expect KCI, St. Benedict or St. James to be the squads best suited to knock off the hosts.  Personally, I think the St. Benedict vs. St. James first-round match-up will be a good one; they are two teams that could potentially find themselves ranked in my initial "top 10" CWOSSA ranking tomorrow.

First Round - Friday
3:00pm - Jacob Hespeler vs. Holy Trinity (Simcoe)
4:30pm - Bluevale vs. Lourdes
6:00pm - KCI vs. Kincardine DSS
7:30pm - St. Benedict vs. St. James

D10: Thursday Picks

A quartet of games on today's D10 schedule, which, interestingly enough feature winners from Tuesday and losers from Tuesday going head-to-head:

Orangeville (0-1) at JF Ross (0-1)
My Pick:  JFR
After both these clubs stumbled in their openers, one of them will get one in the win column today.  I'll go with the Ross Royals to take it at home.

OLOL (0-1) at CWDHS (0-1)
My Pick:  OLOL
....ditto goes for this game.  The Lourdes Crusaders should bounce back from their season-opening loss to Bishop Mac and move to 1-1 in this one.

BMAC (1-0) at Guelph CVI (1-0)
My Pick:  BMAC
The GCVI Gaels are my under-the-radar darkhorse in the D10 league this season, with a strong crop of returning players.  I'll stick with the Bishop Mac Celtics here, but am interested to see how this one plays out.

Centennial (1-0) at St. James (1-0)My Pick:  CCVI
Another tough one to call here, but I'll go with the Centennial Spartans in a close one over in East Guelph.

WCSSAA: Season Opening Picks

After watching some of the other leagues get under way, the Senior Girls' WCSSAA league is set to get themselves started this evening with a full slate of 7 games.  As it's a 15-team league (no Glenview Park), Grand River will get the opening day "bye" today.

Huron Heights at Bluevale
My Pick:  BCI
Things will be a lot different at Bluevale this year, with their strong backcourt of Sarah Hamm and Natalie Bishop having graduated.  Kailee Sawyer will take part in Cross Country this year as her fall sport, so it definitely appears to be a bit more of an uphill climb for the Knights this year, who are now competing at the CWOSSA "AAA" level.  That said, I still look for them to pull out a win at home here.

Cameron Heights at Galt
My Pick:  CHCI
With some strong early season performances, the Cameron Heights Golden Gaels look like a team that should be in the running for a WCSSAA championship (and a CWOSSA "AAAA" berth).  Strong guard play from Nina Farkic and a post presence in Hunter Johns should propel them to an opening victory today down in Cambridge.

Eastwood at Elmira
My Pick:  EDSS
In reviewing the early season schedule, this one looked the most like a "coin flip" among today's games.  Both teams finished with similar records in both the junior and senior circuits last year --- I'll go with the home Lancers to prevail here.

Forest Heights at Jacob Hespeler
My Pick:  JHSS
The Hawks, who were WCSSAA runners-up last year, have as good a shot of anyone of getting back to the title game, provided they can stay healthy (which has been their nemesis over the past few seasons).  Their front-line duo of Courtney (currently rehabbing a knee injury though) & Candice Wright (Vermont commits) will be aided by some talent coming up from last year's CWOSSA "AAA" silver medalists, including Kendra Dennis and Taylor Finamore.  JHSS to win here.

SJAM at Preston
My Pick:  SJAM
Two clubs that both finished on the outside looking in last year with 2-10 league records, one of them will have the opportunity to get their season off on the right foot here.  SJAM showed an improved ability to score the ball at last weekend's ECI tournament, so I'll go with them in this matchup.

KCI at WCI
My Pick:  WCI
Well, I have to put myself out there, and it's certainly tough here given that I expect both of these teams to be in the upper echelon of the WCSSAA league.  KCI has a plethora of talent coming up from the junior ranks, and I won't be surprised regardless of how this one plays out.  Tough to pick against WCI at home, so I'll go with a big performance from WCI star Kaylee Anagnostopoulos and a Viking win.

WODSS at SSS
My Pick:  SSS
It's certainly a different year this year out in Baden, as the majority of last year's WCSSAA championship team has departed, including league MVP Maddy Horst (Western U).  In fact, Tess Pettigrew is the lone remaining starter for the Crusaders.  There could be some early-season growing pains while they get adjusted to their new rotation, so I'll go with the home Sabres who return a couple of talented scorers in Taylor White and Brianne Jewell. 

D8: Wednesday Results

The "big game" between the St. David Celtics and St. Benedict Saints, two teams that are certainly in the running for this year's D8 championship, certainly lived up to the billing as the Saints held off the visitors 32-29 to move to 2-0 on the campaign.

Kayla Leusink netted 13 while Afifa Salaad chipped in 11 for St. Benedict's scoresheet, while Megan Goar was the top scorer for St. David with 13.

In other action, the Monsignor Doyle Mustangs made a triumphant return to D8 Senior play with a big 43-12 win over the Rockway Flames.  Scoring details were not immediately available from source.

Also on Wednesday, the Woodland Cavaliers picked up their first win of the 2014 season, doubling up the St. Mary's Eagles by a 34-17 count.

Junior
There were two junior games to discuss on Wednesday (Monsignor Doyle is a "senior only" program this season) --- in the first affair, St. Benedict moved to 2-0 with a 28-23 win over St. David.  Maya Danis again led the Saints, scoring 14 points, while Tereza Borges added 8.  Kathryn McQuillan had 9 for the Celtics.

St. Mary's is also 2-0 after a 46-12 win over Woodland Christian.  Summer Pahl scored 16 points in the win for the Eagles, while Gabby Adam led the Cavaliers (0-2) with 7.

Former WODSS Star Yantzi Inducted to University of Vermont Hall of Fame

Former Waterloo-Oxford ('00) and KW Lightning star Aaron Yantzi (now Dickie) was inducted into the University of Vermont Athletic Hall of Fame this past weekend.

From the release posted on Vermont's website:

Yantzi was a three-time America East All-Conference selection, including a First Team honor as a senior. She finished her illustrious career with 1,592 points, fifth at the time and currently seventh in program history. Yantzi also ranks second in program history with a 56.7 field goal percentage and holds four of the top-10 single-season field goal percentage marks. She connected on 80.7 percent of her free throws (currently third all-time) and graduated as the sixth-best rebounder at UVM with 715 boards (currently seventh all-time).

Yantzi is one of three UVM players to average double-figure rebounds in a single season, and one of only five players with at least 1,000 career points and over 700 rebounds. She helped guide Vermont to the 2002 America East Regular Season Title and a berth in the Women's National Invitational Tournament Quarterfinals as a sophomore.

--------------------- 
She is now an assistant coach with St. Michael's College (NCAA D2 - Colchester, Vermont).  

Here's her video presentation from Saturday's event:

D8 Picks: Wednesday

YTD:  3-0 (1.000)

Only 2 games on the D8 schedule today, but one of them is certainly a big early-season match-up between two teams projected to be up near the top of the final standings.  Here's a look:

St. David (1-0) at St. Benedict (1-0)
My Pick:  SBCSS
This could certainly be a preview of this year's D8 finals, although it is far from a two-horse race in the league this season.  Regardless of that fact, I think the St. Benedict Saints are a bit ahead of St. David at this juncture of the season, so I'll go with them to take the win at home.

Monsignor Doyle (0-0) at Rockway (0-1)
My Pick:  RMC
Hard to know which way to go on this one, with Monsignor Doyle making their return to the D8 league after a year's hiatus.  I'm going to go with the Flames in a close one.

Guelph Mercury: Bishop Mac Celtics Use Team Play For Win In Hoops Opener

Article By:  Rob Massey

GUELPH – The Bishop Macdonell Celtics are going to have to spread the wealth around if they're to repeat as District 10 high school senior girls' basketball champions this season. 

"This is the first year where we haven't had somebody where we lean on them to do everything," Bishop Mac coach Karen Bremner said. "It's a little more, in essence, a team where we're scoring by committee, we're bringing the ball up by committee and we're defending by committee, which in some senses is a healthier thing. It's just something that we haven't had to deal with and we're trying to figure out what our identity is at this point." 

"Our team values have not changed at all," Celtics' returnee Rachael DiGravio said. "Pretty much nothing has changed except that all of us have a bigger role on the team. All of us know when to take responsibility, but our team dynamic, nothing has changed. We still have the same values as we did last year. We still have the team concept." 

The Celtics opened their regular season Tuesday with a 50-27 victory over the host Lourdes Crusaders, the visitors pulling away in the fourth quarter by adding 12 points to the gap. 

Bishop Mac had 10 players suited up for the game and nine of them scored, but nobody hit double digits and that's likely to be the case all season long. 

Cindy Seke led with eight points while Ellie Young had seven and Christine Sullivan, Tianna Sullivan, Dianne Priamo and Marcela Gadzinska netted six apiece. 

Rainey Psenicka topped the scoring list for Lourdes with nine points while Brin Krueger and Katarina Moran added four each. 

This year's version of the Celtics is also lacking the tall players that they've had the past four or five seasons. 

"I'd say we're a more athletic team than we have been in the past," Bremner said. "I don't know if we're faster, but you can do a lot of stuff with athletes and that's what we plan on doing." 

"We have a couple tall girls, but most of us are short," DiGravio said. "All of us just know we just have to use our bodies more to box out and because we don't have those tall girls, it just means we have to be a little more physical to get those rebounds." 

Tuesday's game was the first of the season for the Celtics as they opted not to play any pre-season matches. 

"A lot of teams have gone to early bird tournaments and they've gotten a sense of what their teams are capable of," Bremner said. 

"We decided that we were just going to take last week and the week before that to practice and go through offensive sets and things like that and just kind of work through the bumps as they came."

D10 Tuesday: All Doubleheaders End Up As Sweeps To Tip Off Season

All games on Tuesday afternoon in the D10 league ended up with the same team winning both ends of their respective junior-senior doubleheader.  Let's start off with senior action:

Senior
Centennial 52, JF Ross 29
The Spartans staked their claim as the big favourite to capture the D10's "AAAA" CWOSSA (play-in) berth with a big home win over JF Ross.  Hannah Newman (17), Carter Godman (12) and Emma Cain (11) were all in double figures for the Spartans; Ali Darling led the way for the Royals with 10.

Bishop Mac 50, Lourdes 27
Despite losing several key players from last year's roster, the Celtics still seem like they have the upper hand among these two "AA" schools.  Cindy Seke (8) and Ellie Young (7) paced a balanced BMAC attack, while Rainey Psenicka had a game-high 9 for Lourdes with Brin Krueger and Kat Moran adding 4 each.

St. James 47, Orangeville 16
Big win on opening day for the Lions, who received 18 from Melyssa Aramini and 10 from Emily Andres.  Hannah Bellai did most of the damage for Orangeville, with 13 of their 16 points.

Guelph CVI 65, CWDHS 24
Big offensive output from the GCVI Gaels on Tuesday, with key performances by Abbey MacIntyre (16), Cally Strongman (12) and Jenna Falconer (10).  Maddie Fennell had 9 for the Falcons.

Junior
St. James 56, Orangeville 14
Kelsey Widdrington, Meghan Santi, and Stephanie Giovinazzo were all in double figures as the Lions were victorious in their season opener.  Paige Burns led the Bears with 4.

Bishop Mac 47, Lourdes 38 (OT)
Good battle here between "AA" schools that actually took overtime to settle.  Leading scorers were not immediately available.

Centennial 42, JF Ross 34
Katie Terrey had a game-high 15 for JF Ross but it wasn't enough as the Spartans prevailed in this one.  Lauren Zonneveld (12) and Paige Heffernan (11) had double-digit efforts for Centennial.

Guelph CVI 50, CWDHS 10
No trouble for the Gaels in this one as they cruised past the Centre Wellington Falcons at home.
