In the crossover qualifiers, the St. Clair Saints clipped the Durham Lords 62-49. The teams played even for most of the first half until Saints reserve Kendall Quinlan hit a pair of treys including one while being fouled in the act shooting that resulted in a rare four-point play. Quinlan also drew a pair of offensive charges allowing St. Clair to take a 32-24 lead into half-time. In the second half, St. Clair scored the first 11 points and seemed in command but Durham battled to cut the 19-point lead to 9 with minutes to play. Forced to foul, Durham could not come any closer while St. Clair was able to pick up key rebounds down the stretch. Durham did win the rebound battle 50-37 including 21 offensive boards but was 0-13 from the arc and shot .290 from the floor. Sarah Stevens led St. Clair with 22 points, 6 boards and 6 steals. Arica Price added 15 points, along with 5 assists and 4 steals. Sara Levesque notched 8, along with 7 boards and 3 blocks.

It marked the first time in five years that the Grizzlies qualified for the final eight. “I’m so excited for them,” said Grizzlies coach Marnie Buchanan. “They worked so hard and it’s nice to see their hard work pay off. We’ve been to the crossover game for the past three years and now their work has paid off to reach the provincials.” Summer Bly said “oh my gosh, it feels so good (to finally get there),” Bly said. “It’s been four long years and this team is so good.” Bly, who was just three swats short of a triple-double, added that “we worked so well together as a unit. We had a lot of different girls blocking, stealing, and rebounding, so we were all in it as a team. We were very energetic. It was a great effort and we left it all out on the floor.” The Falcons made a late run but the Grizzlies called time-out and opted to slow the pace. “We just said that we needed to stay calm and relax the game, because things were getting a little hectic out there,” Bly said. “That’s not our game. We just needed to slow down the pace a bit and get control back.” Buchanan said the fast tempo rattled her troops. “We just wanted to extend the lead that we had. We knew they were going to come back and we needed to keep doing and maintain what we did in the first half when we were successful.” The Grizzlies led by 17 with 7 minutes to play and the Falcons rallied with full court pressure. “We worked on relaxing, knowing that pressure is going to come,” Buchanan said. “We worked on staying under control, focused, and running our systems.” Bly said “we still need to relax in our press. We get too frazzled and it gets hectic there, so we just need to have confidence in our ability to bring the ball up the floor.” Buchanan said “we have to focus on what is our game, which is getting the ball inside. We have that strength down low and we have to use it.” Dana Marley paced the Grizzlies with 17 on 7-9 from the line. Sarah Williams added 16, along with 4 steals, and Summer Bly 14, along with 11 boards and 7 blocks, Megan Robertson 13, Dana Campbell 6, Courtney Blum 3 and MacKenzie Merkley 1.

In the semis, the Algonquin Thunder dusted the Humber Hawks 75-58. The Thunder appeared rattled early by Humber’s full-court pressure, but clawed to a 35-34 lead at the half on the veteran leadership, discipline and marksmanship of Jenny Allen, Dayna Dover and Tina Ethier. Sandre Bascoe and Trish Grey began to assert themselves in the post as Algonquin built a 47-41 lead early in the second half and although Humber made several runs at the Thunder, the post tandem, or Allen, in the form of a deft feed, invariably had the answers, particularly during a late 15-4 run. “We had to step it up,” said Bascoe. “We had to get our heads in it. We wanted this. This is our gym and we needed that win.” Coach John MacInnis said his post tandem proved the difference. “We knew if we just kept pounding it in there, it was going to happen. They’re a mature unit and they just don’t want to lose.

In the other semi, the Sheridan Bruins dumped the Seneca Sting 69-59. Sheridan built a 34-23 lead at the half by constantly breaking down Seneca’s defence off the dribble, while the Sting pulled the string on a dozen uncontested layups. With Michelle Asare continuing to play penetrate-and-dish to set up teammates for easy buckets, Sheridan extended its lead to 50-34 and then iced it with a trio of treys by Tanya Perry. “We thought speed would beat height and that’s eventually what happened,” said Asare. Sheridan coach Shane Bascoe said his troops attacked the basket effectively. “When they do that, they do a good job of winning.” Tanya Perry paced Sheridan with 13 on 4-13 from the floor, 3-7 from the arc, 2-4 from the line and 2 boards.

In the bronze medal match, the Seneca Sting rode the superior post play of Tamara Nembhard, Ruth Holland and Nicole Higgins to a 55-50 win over the Humber Hawks. Nembhard’s boardwork and defensive presence in the paint were decisive as the Sting took command and held the Hawks scoreless over the final three minutes. “Hard work pays off,” said Nembhard. Sting coach Craig Walker said his troops executed the game plan adroitly. “We just thought that Tamara was too strong, too big, much too agile and just too aggressive for their inside players.” Nembhard was chosen player of the game for the Sting, while Kaitlynn Paulley earned the laurels for the Hawks.

The inscription on the sweatshirts of table officials at the OCAA championships said it all: “You’ve been thunderstruck.” The energized Algonquin Thunder left Sheridan dazed and dazzled while earning its first trip to the national college championships and ending the Bruins’ dream of an OCAA four-peat in the title bout. The Thunder easily shrugged off any vestige of Bruin mystique while dominating from the start and blasting the Bruins 59-46 in the battle of unbeaten OCAA divisional champs. “Sheridan has to be thunderstruck,” said tournament MVP Jenny Allen. “We knew what we had to do when we came in and we played as one team. From start to finish, we knew we had it the whole way. It didn’t matter that Sheridan had the name.” Tina Ethier, whose calm leadership and solid defence on Bruins star Michelle Asare was highly instrumental in the win added that “we played our game. We didn’t let them take us out of it and we beat them. We were prepared for everything they came at us with.” With early three-pointer from Allen and Ethier, the Thunder quickly shook off any jitters it might have had and built a 16-9 lead as Sandre Bascoe controlled the defensive boards and notched three buckets in the blocks. Algonquin extended its lead to 38-25 at the half on putback rebounds from Trish Grey, transition layups from Jori Ritchie, a pair of threes from Ethier and a buzzer-beating reverse baseline layup by Allen. Sheridan kept aggressively attacking the basket and drawing fouls to briefly rally to within 10 points, but Allen knifed into the paint for a pair of buckets and Ethier nailed another three as Algonquin regained a 17-point lead, and with Allen easily handling Sheridan’s pressure, rolled to an easy win. Determination was key, said Bascoe. “Going to nationals was the goal for the year. That was our mission, so it had to happen.” Trish Grey said “we were a little nervous, but our coaches really prepared us, like what their weaknesses were and what we had to do. We knew: This is our time. We just wanted this more.” Thunder coach John MacInnis said discipline, maturity and Allen proved the difference. “This team just refused to lose. And they had the utmost confidence in themselves. … This championship win was Algonquin College’s first Ontario Championship in 38 years. The year “1973” was a rallying cry all season long and is printed on our warm up shirts. It was a simple matter of our team wanting the game more. We did all the little things (box out, deny hard, bump cutters, communicate, set solid screens, hold seals, etc.) that you need to do to get a victory in a Championship game. am so very proud of all our girls, they bought into our system and executed the game plan to absolute perfection. Everyone contributed and our bench energy was off the charts. This team proves that if you get everyone on the same page and you work hard toward a common goal that anything is possible.
