In the final, the Petitcodiac Regional Panthers defeated St. George Eastern Charlotte Regional 56-52. Trailing by 15 with 11 minutes to play, the Panthers shifted to a full-court press and created havoc. “We waved our press and didn’t use it against them,” during three regular season games, all of which Petitcodiac won, said coach Ron Hooper. “We felt that they were the team we would meet in the final and we didn’t want them to be prepared for our press. When we put it on, it turned the game around.” Terry Bannister led the Panthers with 16 points. Matt Kaye added 12. Petitcodiac Regional finished (43-1) on the campaign.
