        In the final, Edmonton Gainers defeated the Halifax Red Fox 71-65 as Trix Kannekens scored 20 points. The Gainers had only played together twice before the national tourney. “Basically, we’re an all-star team,” Dori Jones, one of three Calgary players to join the team for the tourney, told the Winnipeg Free Press. “But we’d all played together or against one another in college, so it worked pretty well. And we were loose and relaxed, which helped.” Jones scored 13. Anna Pendergast hit for 18 for Halifax. Jones, then coaching the University of Calgary women’s team, had only played three games all year but shot well in the tourney. “I worked so hard at it ten years ago (at the University of Winnipeg) and Vic Pruden taught ne so well, I don’t think I’ll ever lose it. I haven’t really played for five years but it’s like riding a bike. It always comes back.”
