In the quarterfinals, held at UBC-Okanagan, the 2^nd-seeded Dawson Blues edged the 7^th-seeded wildcard Lethbridge Kodiaks 79-75. The teams swapped the lead early with the Blues coming out ahead by the end of the first, 21-19. Their lead would be short-lived as the Kodiaks would come on strong early in the second led by rookie Guard Paige Bowman to take a three-point lead, before the Blues would exert their force to take a 37-33 halftime lead. The second half would prove to be a rollercoaster ride as the Blues came out strong to ride an 18-4 run in the first half of the 3^rd quarter to give them a 55-39 lead and apparent control of the game. However, the Kodiaks Kayla Lambert would provide the emotional spark to get her team back in the game as her fiery play would lead a 14-4 Kodiak run to close out the quarter, and close the gap to 55-53. In the fourth, Lambert would continue to control the flow, knocking down a three-pointer while being fouled, then sinking the ensuing free-throw to complete a rare four-point play and bring standing cheers from the Kodiak supporters. This would incite the Lethbridge team to another 14-4 run to give them a 71-64 lead midway through the fourth, and force Dawson to take a timeout. The timeout would do the trick as the Blues would charge back to tie the game at 71 when a desperate Lambert tumbled following an attempt to block a fast break lay-up, injuring her ankle and forcing her from the game. This would effectively halt any Kodiak chances and the Blues would continue an endless march to the charity stripe to pull out the win. Paige Bowman was named Player of the Game for the Kodiaks, while Marilene Lapierre earned the laurels for Dawson. Marilene Lapierre paced Dawson with 21 on 7-11 from the floor, 7-8 from the line, 5 boards and 2 steals. Serginha Estime added 17 on 5-9 from the floor, 7-8 from the line and 13 boards.

The 6^th-seeded Mount Saint Vincent Mystics stunned the 3^rd-seeded SAIT Polytechnic Trojans 67-65. The Mystics won their 24^th consecutive of the campaign while defeating the Alberta champs. The Mystics jumped out to a 13-6 lead midway through the first on strong post work by fifth-year Amy Pevent. But the Trojans rallied to within 17-16 on drives by guard Brittany Pekar. CCAA Player of the year Kimberley lee knocked down a three-pointer while being fouled, then converting it for an impressive four-point play to tie the game at 21. Lee added several steals and buckets to give SAIT a 16-point lead late in the quarter, and SAIT’s Breanna Emmerzael would preserve that lead with a last second block to give the Trojans a 37-21 lead at the half. The Trojans came out flying in the second, scoring the first 12 points including another 3 by Lee to take a 49-21 lead in the first four minutes. But the momentum shifted back towards the Maritimes as Kaili van Vulpen buried two 3-pointers a minute apart and Katherine Brien would add two of her own to cap an incredible 24-0 run, closing the gap to 49-44 with just over two minutes remaining in the third. The teams would exchange buckets the rest of the quarter to make it 53-49 heading into the final frame. Sisters Katherine and Christina Brien would contribute key buckets in the fourth, as the Mystics would close the gap completely to tie the game at 58 with four minutes to go. A van Vulpen trey with just over two minutes to play would give the Mystics a 63-60 lead, but any momentum the Mystics had was sent crashing down to earth as a Kim Lee three put the Trojans on top 65-63 late. But the Mystics battled back, and an Amy Peveril bank shot gave the team from Nova Scotia a 67-65 lead with eighteen seconds to play. SAIT would have two free-throws and a putback attempt to tie, but came up short. Kim Lee went down in the final seconds with an apparent calf injury but was chosen player of the game for SAIT, while Katherine Brien earned the laurels for the Mystics. Katherine Brien paced Mount Saint Vincent with 20 on 5-13 from the floor, 4-6 from the arc, 6-6 from the line, 8 boards, 7 assists and 2 steals.

The 5^th-seeded Quebec runner-up Sainte-Foy Dynamiques dumped the 4^th-seeded host and BC champ UBC-Okanagan Heat 79-70. The Heat took an early 13-8 lead and extended it to 19-12 after one quarter. The teams would play an evenly matched second quarter with the Heat continuing to play strong ball, while the Dynamiques quietly inched back into the game. They knotted the score at 31 before Katie Woodman put up a long two then slashed in for her own rebound and converted the put-back as well as an ensuing free-throw to give the Heat a 34-31 lead at the break. Sainte-Foy came out swinging in the second half, as they caught the Heat flat-footed and went on a 14-0 run to take a 45-34 advantage midway through the 3^rd forcing the Heat to call a timeout. The timeout halted the Dynamiques momentum and the Heat clawed their way back into the game with a 14-5 run to end the quarter and make it 50-48 for Sainte-Foy heading into the final frame. The Dynamiques took control again in the fourth, taking a 63-56 lead at the midway point before a Katie Woodman lay-up with a “plus-one” made it 63-59, then a three-pointer by Madison Kaneda closed the gap to 63-62 but the Dynamiques won it at the free throw line. Poor ball control and having to deal with Sainte-Foy’s physical play also took a toll on the Heat. Okanagan coach Heather Semeniuk felt that it was ultimately too many turnovers and an inability to sink shots down the stretch that cost her team the game. Kaneda was named player of the game for the Heath, while Marie-Line Petit earned the laurels for the Dynamiques. Marie-Line Petit paced Sainte-Foy with 19 on 5-7 from the floor, 1-1 from the arc, 8-9 from the line, 3 boards, 5 assists and 6 steals. Catherine Groleau added 17 on 6-20 from the floor, 1-4 from the arc, 4-5 from the line, 4 boards and 3 steals. Gabriela Hebert notched 14 on 4-19 from the floor, 6-7 from the line and 9 boards.

In the last quarterfinal, the top-seeded Sheridan Bruins stomped the 8^th-seeded Camosun Chargers 84-51. The Bruins entered the tournament undefeated, including three straight playoff wins in which they topped their foes by 30. The game started as expected with the Bruins taking a solid lead early on, 15-8, and it seemed as if the Chargers would pose little threat. Camosun took a beating on the boards as the bigger Sheridan players had their way on the inside and pushed the Charger forwards around at will. The Bruins extended their lead to 21-10 late in the quarter before a last second basket made it 21-12. The teams would see-saw in the second, as it seemed the Chargers found a way to match the Bruins by using their open court speed advantage to keep pace as the score moved to 32-22 as the first half wound down. Then a Kate Carlson three and some good post moves by Chelsea McMullen gave the Chargers a spark as they pulled to within 34-30 at the half. The Bruins outrebounded the Chargers but shot poorly from the floor. The Chargers rallied to a 41-39 lead in the second half. That was followed by several lead changes leading to a Sheridan time-out, after which the Bruins ripped off a 32-5 run to take command. Chelsea McMullen was chosen player of the game for the Chargers, while Donisha Young earned the laurels for the Bruins.

In the bronze quarterfinals, the 3^rd-seeded SAIT Trojans clipped the 7^th-seeded Lethbridge Kodiaks 87-64. The Trojans leapt to an early advantage in the first quarter and made a steady march to the free-throw line pay off as they hit 11 of 12 and took a 26-17 lead into the second quarter. SAIT continued to apply the pressure as ripped off a 13-6 run to push the lead to 39-23. The two teams would trade baskets from that point forward with the score sitting at 49-33 at the half. Lethbridge star Paige Bowman fouled out midway through the 3^rd, dashing any hopes the Kodiaks had for a comeback from a 22-point deficit. The Kodiaks went on a brief run to close the gap to 62-45 but got no closer. Anne Mercer was named Player of the Game for the Kodiaks following a rare 20-20 game, while Kimberly Lee earned the laurels for SAIT.

Kimberly Lee paced SAIT with 28 on 11-20 from the floor, 2-6 from the arc, 4-5 from the line, 5 boards, 3 assists and 3 steals.

In the other bronze quarterfinal, the 4^th-seeded UBC-Okanagan Heat clubbed the 8^th-seeded Camosun Chargers 68-45 in a repeat of the BC finals. Camosun held the edge for much of the first quarter, going up by as much as 12-6, before the Heat went on a 10-0 run to end the first with a score of 16-12. The Heat went on a 7-0 run early in the second quarter capped by a Jenna Kantz lay-up to give them a 25-16 advantage. The two teams would play to a stand-still the rest of the way as the Heat would take a 27-20 lead in a low-scoring first half. The Heat sped things up in the third, kicking things off with an 11-4 run to make it 38-24. The two teams would battle back and forth the rest of the way as the score settled at 47-32 heading into the final frame. The Heat started the fourth with a 6-0 run and cruised through a relatively uneventful quarter outscoring the Chargers 21-13. Katie Woodman was named Player of the Game for the Heat, while Chelsea McMullen earned the laurels for the Chargers. Heat assistant coach Mandy Trenholm said “the difference is like night and day. The players were told to go home and to each find their own way to get over last night’s loss. When they came in today their attitudes were completely different. They remember why they’re here.” Katie Woodman paced UBC-Okanagan with 14 on 5-11 from the floor, 2-5 from the arc, 2-2 from the line, 3 boards, 4 assists and 5 steals.

In the semis, the 6^th-seeded Mount Saint Vincent Mystics stunned the 2^nd-seeded Dawson Blues 60-48. Both teams had troubles finding the hoop early on as the score stood at 5-3 midway through the first quarter. The Blues took a 13-7 lead before the Mystics narrowed it to 13-10 after one quarter. The Mystics rallied within 17-16 before Chelsea MacKay went down hard, hitting her head. Rather than delay the game, officials decided to start half-time early and return to play after MacKay was treated. The two teams exchanged leads several times in the five minutes before the third quarter. Dawson’s Genevieve Gaboriault gave the Blues a lead by draining a three-pointer just seconds after the Mystics’ Kaili van Vulpen made one of her own to give her team a 2-point lead. The Mystics led 25-24 at the half. The game would get even more physical in the second, as the two teams battled for possession of the ball, and hard fouls became the norm. Although it seemed Dawson was the more physical of the two, the Mystics took a 42-32 lead early in the fourth quarter. Both teams exploded offensively in the fourth as the Mystics held onto their double-digit lead to advance to the final. Kaili van Vulpen was named player of the game for the Mystics, while Marilene Lapierre earned the laurels for the Blues. Kaili van Vulpen paced Mount Saint Vincent with 21 on 7-13 from the floor, 2-5 from the arc, 5-8 from the line, 3 assists and 2 steals.

In the other semi, the 5^th-seeded Sainte-Foy Dynamiques stunned the top-seeded Sheridan Bruins 80-63 in a repeat of the 2009 final. Both teams started quick as Sainte-Foy took an 10-6 lead and then extended it to 14-8. After several minutes of scoreless ball, the Bruins would wake up and close the gap to 14-12, but a Marie-Pier Baribeau three would open up the Dynamiques lead again, making it 17-12 at the end of the first. The Bruins would come out strong in the second, taking over the lead with a 7-0 run to make it 19-17 early in the second. Sainte-Foy’s Baribeau would catch fire in the middle of the second, knocking down two 3’s in quick succession leading her team on a 17-4 run to make it 34-23 with three minutes remaining in the half. The Bruins would creep back in with a quick 6-0 run of their own, but Sainte-Foy would finish it strong to take a 39-31 lead at the half. Outside shooting was a major factor to the Dynamiques success as they hit 7 of 12 first half three-point attempts, while the Bruins struggled from long range going 0 for 10. The Bruins came on strong to trim the margin to 58-51 after three quarters. But the Dynamiques built on their lead as the quarter progressed, outscoring the Bruins 18-9 in the first seven minutes to make it 76-60 going into the closing minutes.
