Pandas coach Scott Edwards told the Edmonton Examiner that “you see the confidence growing with each game. In this win streak, we’ve had a lot of close games that we’ve had to perform and execute late, and they’ve done it every single game. Credit to their perseverance.

In game two, Regina completed the sweep by nipping Victoria 68-66. The two
teams were tied 13-13 after a low-scoring first quarter and the Cougars took a
30-27 lead into the break after a first half in which the two teams were never separated
by more than five points. The Cougars went on a 6-0 run in the latter portions
of the third quarter to build up a 12-point advantage, the largest of the game
for either team. But the Vikes responded with an 8-0 run of their own to get
the deficit down to four heading into the fourth. Victoria continued the
momentum into the fourth, taking the lead for the first time since the second
quarter after a Debbie Yeboah jumper from the paint two minutes into the period.
The two teams traded punches down the stretch, with Yeboah hitting a pair of
free throws to tie the game back up with a minute remaining. Brittany Read
extended the ensuing possession with an offensive rebound and then hit a layup
that put the Cougars up for good with 27 seconds left. The Cougars forced a
missed shot on the ensuing possession and Victoria had to foul four times
before Michelle went to the line with seven seconds left. Clark hit both free
throws to make it a two-possession game, and all a late Jenny Lewis bucket at
the buzzer could do was to bring Victoria to within two. “We battled hard
tonight and you can feel a little bit better about things when you play hard
like that and give it your all,” said associate Vikes coach Dani Sinclair. “Debbie
has been our leader all year and she carried us on her back at the end there.
She hit some great shots and Regina didn’t have an answer for her. She has been
an unbelievable part of our program and did everything she could. Things didn’t
fall our way tonight. For eight of our girls it was their very first playoff
game so, to be a part of a game like tonight’s game is a great experience for
them. Losing a game like that can be great motivation for teams and players to
come back motivated to train through the summer and play next year.” Brittany
Read paced the Cougars with 16 on 8-12 from the floor, 0-2 from the line and 6
boards. Danielle Schmidt added 12 on 5-16 from the floor, 2-6 from the arc, 12

79-66 (2g-0). …………………………………………………… In game one, Calgary whipped Thompson Rivers
71-58. Calgary took command in the second quarter on an outburst from Ashley Hirons.
The Wolfpack led 18-14 after one quarter but Calgary opened the second frame
with a 14-0 run and soon built a 28-20 lead. The Dinos ended the half with a
three-pointer from point guard Megan Schaufele to give them a 38-28 lead heading
into the lockers. Once again, it took almost half of the quarter for the WolfPack
to get on the board, with the Dinos extending their lead to 18 before allowing
the visitors to score. As the quarter started to slow down for both teams,
Thompson Rivers pulled within 53-43 after three quarters. The Wolfpack never
threatened. “Tonight really came down to their three-point shooting and our
inability to shoot free throws,” said WolfPack coach Scott Reeves. “We had a
dry spell in the second quarter but they had one in the third. Rebounds and turnovers
were the same for both teams.” Ashley Hirons paced the Dinos with 20 on 8-15

In the Final Four semis, held in Calgary, the host Dinos trailed by 15 in the first half but rallied to defeat Alberta 66-56. “It obviously wasn’t the start we wanted, but the players showed once again their resilience and ‘never-give-up’ attitude,” said Dinos coach Damian Jennings. “We are of course pleased to have made it to nationals, but I know this group won’t be happy to settle for a silver medal tomorrow.” The Pandas outscored the Dinos 19-7 in the first quarter with stellar play off the bench from Sally Hillier and Kendra Asleson. They built their lead to 15 when the Dinos clamped down on the defensive side of the ball, allowing just two points in the final four minutes of the second quarter, while going on an 8-0 run to rally within 30-24 at the half.

A Sarah Wierks lay-up in the opening minute of the fourth tied it at 42-42 and Cascades then took command. “Alberta came in really energized and motivated to tonight’s game.

In the final, the Regina Cougars dusted the Calgary Dinos 53-37. Neither team could find much of an offensive rhythm, in part because of the Cougars sticky defence. “We struggled all game shooting the ball but I thought our veterans made some key plays in the second half which is what I expect of them,” said Cougars coach Dave Taylor. “We got our composure back in the second half and our rebounding and defence kept us in the game.” The Cougars led 10-9, 23-20 and 41-29 at the quarters. They took command at the start of the second half, holding Calgary off the scoreboard for the first 4:36 of the third quarter while exploding for 10 unanswered points.

After the season, Rich Chambers steps aside as coach of the Victoria Vikes “due to personal and family circumstances.” Chambers was in his second year the Vikes helm but was unable to fulfil day-to-day coach responsibilities during the season. Those who were assumed by associate coach Dani Sinclair, who was subsequently appointed full-time coach for the 2013-14 campaign. “Vikes athletics has benefited tremendously from Rich Chambers’ leadership,” said Clint Hamilton, director of Vikes Athletics and Recreation. “A tireless worker with tremendous passion and energy, coach Chambers made a very positive impact on the culture of our women’s basketball program that will be embedded for years to come.” Sinclair, a former Vikes star, played for legendary Vikes coach Kathy Shields. “I am delighted that our hiring process has affirmed Dani as our women’s basketball coach,” said Hamilton. “She has worked incredibly hard to prepare herself to lead our program and I have every confidence that she will succeed in building our women’s basketball program to the level she contributed to and enjoyed as a player at UVic.” She joined the Vikes as an assistant in 2006. “There is a tremendous history of leadership and excellence in the Vikes basketball program,” said Sinclair. “There have been a number of great, accomplished coaches that have gone through this program, all very exceptional leaders, teachers and people. It’s truly an honour to have the opportunity to take this team into the future and be the next leader of this program.”
After the season, Loralyn Murdoch stepped aside from the helm at the University of Northern British Columbia to become athletic director. She replaced herself with Olds coach Sergey Shchepotkin. “I played for the CKSA, Central Sports Army Club, in Moscow, Russia,” Shchepotkin said. “The CKSA is one of the most high-profile clubs in Russia, and is well-known in Europe. I then played in Lebanon, I played there for eight years but stayed to work as a coach and manager for a sports club.” Shchepotkin’s professional experience includes coaching in a women’s professional league in Russia and club teams in Lebanon. He’s coached four WNBA players, 24 national team players (Russia, Lebanon, Croatia and Australia), eight European champions, two Asian Club champions, and one bronze medalist from the Olympic Games in Beijing (2008). “Sergey will bring a European flavour to UNBC women’s basketball,” Murdoch said. “His experience coaching at the premier level in Russia is very exciting and to have a coach as qualified and passionate about the game is going to be great motivation for the players. When you have a candidate that comes highly recommended from our current U19 national team head coach, as well as our former senior women’s national team coach – I think the future is very bright.” Shchepotkin moved with his wife and two children from Russia to Vancouver in 2006. They stayed there until 2011, when he got the coaching job at Olds College. “All my thoughts for the upcoming season are surrounding what our game plan is going to be,” he stated. “Our plan is to show at least the same result as last year but trying to do a bit more. I am really very happy and very excited. I just thought today that UNBC is a very young CIS team but the team’s winning tradition is very large.”
