To start the second quarter, the Mountaineers implemented a full-court press and got in the way of Durham’s cross-court pass attempts to hold the Lords to just six points in the period. Mohawk also turned their good defence into offence, finding more ways to score than just behind the arc. Offensive rebounds and a good transition game helped the Mountaineers pull ahead 37-20 at the halftime break. Durham started to press on defence to start the third quarter and slowly crept back into the game after a couple of forced turnovers. Mohawk adjusted, however, and was able to pass around the pressure to hang onto an eight-point third quarter lead. Mohawk’s defence continued to stifle the Lords offence in the fourth quarter, getting their arms into the passing lanes, causing tipped passes and forcing turnovers.

Mohawk employed their usual pressing defence and helped each other out with quick rotations while Humber’s length started to give the Mountaineers fits at both ends of the court. Humber’s Mary Asare used her size in the post along with the shooting touch of Marie Maranan to give Humber a 30-24 halftime lead. The Mountaineers started the third quarter on a 5-0 run. Offensive rebounds continued to be a concern for Mohawk but their defence held Humber to just 13 points in the half, including a mere five points in the final quarter.

Mohawk point guard Rachelle Abella was chosen player of the game for the Mountaineers, while Chioma Oriuwa earned the laurels for the Hawks.

Thunder coach John MacInnis noted that “in our biggest game of the year thus far we had one of our best games. We executed our game plan perfectly and really dominated from start to finish. Felicia Mazerolle and Sandre Bascoe dominated the game at both ends of the court. This was a total team effort as our superior depth just overwhelmed the Saints.” A very skilled, fast-striking Algonquin team had their offence clicking in the first half, giving the Saints trouble on defence. The Thunder’s Sandre Bascoe used her length and scoring touch in the lane to help her team go into halftime with a 42-21 lead. A Bascoe layup ended a 7-0 St. Clair run to start the second half. The Saints matched the Thunder offence for offence in the third quarter but couldn’t keep pace with the high-tempo scoring of Algonquin.

The St. Clair Saints looked sharp early, running a balanced offence of inside and outside scoring. Even when they were up by 20, St. Clair used an up-tempo offence and turned good defence into transition points to extend their lead to 30. Meighen Boyd buried back-to-back three-point shots and Jessica Gordon provided sure handed scoring in the paint to help the Saints take a 36-26 lead into halftime.

The Hawks man-to-man defence held St. Lawrence to just seven points in the second quarter, and only nine in the third, giving Humber a 13-point lead going into the final period, primarily on the physical play of Chioma Oriuwa and Brenda Carachure in the paint.

        In the bronze medal match, the St. Clair Saints nipped the St. Lawrence-Kingston Vikings 59-57. The Saints led 16-13 after one quarter. The Vikings led 35-24 at the half. The Saints led 45-44 after three quarters. St. Lawrence started the game with the same full-court press defence but when St. Clair started to get easy layups behind the trap, the Vikings abandoned the strategy only to return to the press in the second quarter when the Saints started to pull ahead. The decision to start the press again was a good one, holding the Vikings to eight points in the second quarter. The Vikings then cooled off in the third quarter, relying on three-point attempts to stop St. Clair’s comeback. The Saints did finally take the lead with a Jessica Gordon layup. Good shooting from Kendyl Rizea and Shannon Kennedy helped the Saints eventually take a 45-44 lead into the fourth quarter. The Saints only managed two points in the first six minutes of the fourth quarter. Then, just when they needed a boost, Meighen Boyd buried a three, followed by a Kelly Rizea layup to take back a one-point lead. Up by one in the final minute, the Saints allowed Nicolle Gaudet to sneak into the lane, unguarded on an inbounds play, and give the Vikings a one-point lead. Gordon refused to go down easily, however, and answered Gaudet’s bucket with a three to go up two. Then it was up to Gaudet again at the free throw line but the Kingston native could only manage one of two, forcing the Vikings to foul after the Saints collected the rebound.
