        In pool A play, held in conjunction with the Canada Games in Kamloops: …………………………………………………… Ontario throttled the Northwest Territories 109-27. The Territories were coached by Quinn Groenheyde, a former star for Victoria. “My kids had no concept of what high performance basketball was all about,” Groenheyde said. “I started with 20 kids on May 20, 1990 and some of them have quit. But this is what I’ve got.” Groenheyde says talks constantly about patient, positive reinforcement and learning to win. “What I bright to the kids is a winning attitude. At UVic, we just knew that we were going to win and you got that kind of focus. I think I’ve been able to pass that on to the kids.”

        In pool B play: …………………………………………………… British Columbia defeated Nova Scotia 86-56 as Steve Nash scored 7. Cyril Smith paced Nova Scotia with 22.

I took it as a challenge and I guess I did alright.” …………………………………………………… Nova Scotia throttled PEI 104-56.
