Saints drop playoff game

By Kenton Wolfe
The St. Clair College Saints varsity women’s basketball team lost their qualifying playoff match 69-65 against the Loyalist Lancers Feb. 24, ending their post-season.
The matchup was a crossover playoff game, with the Saints fourth place regular-season finish in the Western Region securing them a berth against the East Region’s fifth place Lancers.
The Saints were able to get the Lancers into foul-trouble, but their poor free-throw percentage of 53.6 per cent proved to be the prevailing theme. Loyalist also dominated the field, with a 48.2 per cent conversion rate. Nikea Worrell led the way for Loyalist with 20 points and 10 rebounds.
Bienka Jones led the way for the Saints with 19 points and 8 rebounds, while Kendyl Rizea and Jaide Lyons also chipped in, with 17 and 16 points respectively.
This marks the first time in 10 years the team has lost a qualifying game. The Lancers will advance to the Ontario Collegiate Athletic Association Championships in Etobicoke, hosted by Humber College.
