The Canadian Champion, Fniday, November 16, 2001-25 ~Redilng juiior c-agers*' pay-back hopes nixed Sub-par shooting in quarterfinals does in BR By STEVE LeBLANC Thse Champion Bishop Reding's hopas for a little bas- ketball pay-back fell fiat during quarterfi- nal playoff action Monday. The BR juniors had already locked up second place and an opening-round bye in their Halton Region Volpe Division head- ing mbt regular-season ending play against Oakville's Iroquois Ridge November 5. With nothing tangible on the lina, they offarad a less-than-stellar performance for tisat encountar and were outdistanced 31 - 29. Needlets 10 say, tise local cagers; were looking for a stronger effort during tise retum engagement. Though tha stakes were much higher, dia Royals' offensive campaign was grounded - particularly during the tisird quarter, when they managed just a single basket. As a result, Reding was vanquished 27- 20 Monday and denied access 10 the final four round. "Our shooting was horrible, we were just 6-for-23 from the fout lisse," said co-coacis Rich Lopez. "Wa made a brief mun ai dia end diere, but il was too little, 100 laIe." Diane Cosme and Laura Pacevicius led dia hosts' scoring wi six points apieca. BR isad a golden opportunity to close dia gap during tisird-quartar play - wiie their guesîs saemed stuck in neutral - but fal- tered at every tum. The juniors fiùshed dia seaaon on a direa-gamae losing skid afler winning their firsI seven leagua gaines, several by a handful of points or less. Remarked Lopez, "Finishing 7-2 and in second place (for the regular season) was definitely an accomplishment." Meanwhile, BR's seniors were also elim- inated in the quarterfinals Monday - gel- ting hammered by the undefeated and championship-bound St. Thomas Aquinas Raiders 57-22. The Oakville powerhouse jumped out 10 an early lead and asseeted tbemselves as thse superior squad throughout the entire contest. Merediths Murphy and Alicia New recorded six points eacb for the Royals. Last Wednesday, BR exacted a measure of revenge for a regular-season loss Io the fourth-place Oakville Trafalgar Devils - knocking tbem off 31-27 in opening-round play. Murphy's 14-point showcase fueled thse pay-back victory. Reding's senior hoopsters finished fifth for thse season with a record of 5-4.
