        In pool A play at the inaugural juvenile championships held in Vancouver: …………………………………………………… British Columbia whipped Alberta 86-67. BC said they were determined to avenge a 79-75 loss to Alberta at the Western Canada Summer Games a month earlier. “Just the way they celebrated after they beat us,” said B.C. point guard Hamed Nazzari. “We took that loss to heart. We practised every day after that and we practised more intense. To get the good start helps. We get the fastbreak going, we get the bench into it, we get the crowd into it.” Both teams played run-and-gun, with little inclination for defence. B.C. came out on fire, led by the outside shooting of guard Adam Friesen and led 46-29 with three minutes to go in the opening half. Alberta then showed it could shoot the three, also getting a couple of long bombs from Steve Sir, and went on a 14-1 run to cut the margin to 47-43 two minutes into the second half. That’s as close as Alberta could get it, though, as B.C. turned its shooting stroke back on. The heat “got to us a little bit,” said Nazzari. “But we’ve been practicing in it. I think we’re used to it.” Forward Sean Thistle led BC with 23. Nazzari added 13.

        In the 7th place playoff, Manitoba clubbed Newfoundland 86-58.

        In the final, Alberta defeated B.C. 88-64 as tournament MVP Steve Sir scored 47 points. “We choked,” admitted B.C. boys’ coach Paul Eberhardt. “Why? I’m going to ask myself that for a long time.” Eberhardt’s team never got their up-tempo offence in gear and had no answer for Alberta guard Steve Sir, as the Edmonton native canned seven three-pointers on his way to 47 points. The closest B.C. could get was 14 points, at 65-51 with 14 minutes to go in the fourth quarter.
