"If that had happened again, it would have been heartbreaking." Savich was a member of the Webb team that lost a six-point decision to Iroquois Ridge in last year's Halton final on the same court at Sheridan College. In fact, the Chargers had seven players back from last season and were determined to claim the title that escaped them in 2015. "We've got a lot of returning players, so it's a good veteran junior team, which you don't see that often," Faulhafer said. The Chargers trailed throughout the opening quarter but a pair of threes by Savich sparked a 10-2 run that gave Webb a lead it would not surrender. Ilija Milovojevic led another 10-2 charge later in the quarter that sent Webb into the half with a 34-21 lead. A pair of threes by Zorbas early in the second half got Abbey Park back in the game but Webb countered with a 9-0 run led by Reuban Soriano that increased the lead to 46-29, the Chargers' biggest advantage of the game. "We played really good defence and forced a lot of turnovers and got a lot of steals," said Milovojevic, a Grade 9 student who led the team in both points (18) and rebounds (eight). Joining Milovojevic in double figures were Savich with 17 points and four steals and Soriano with 15 points while Young Jaein had seven. "Our runs came from our defence and we definitely felt in a rhythm shooting," said Savich. Abbey Park would force several turnovers of its own down the stretch, converting them into points as it scored 13 in a row at one point. The Eagles lost only twice this season, by two points in overtime to White Oaks in the regular season and again by two points in the Halton final. Cameron Hayhoe had nine points and 10 rebounds for Abbey Park. "Connected to your Community" tam e t i g e rs Garth Webb edges Abbey Park in Halton T2 junior hoops final By Herb Garbutt Oakville Beaver staff With six minutes to play, the Garth Webb Chargers' first boys' basketball title looked well in hand. The Chargers had led the Halton junior boys' Tier 2 final since early in the second quarter and by the fourth, their lead had swelled to 15 points. Webb knew its opponents very well, though. In their regular season meeting with Abbey Park, the Eagles had pulled out a 50-48 victory on a basket in the final seconds. "Abbey Park doesn't give up," said Chargers' coach Tim Faulhafer, whose team went 13-1 Zoran Savich scored 17 in league play. points for Garth Webb, Led by Julian Lepp, who scored 12 of his including two key late free game-high 26 points throws. | photo by Herb in the final quarter, the Garbutt ­ Burlington Post Eagles stormed back to cut the lead to one with a 17-3 run. With under 30 seconds to play, the Chargers' Zoran Savich hit a pair of free throws to extend Webb's lead to 60-57. That would prove to be crucial as Lepp went to the line to shoot two with 1.8 seconds remaining. He made the first, and needing two points to tie, intentionally missed the second. The rebound was swatted away from the basket. The Eagles' Perry Zorbas scooped it off the floor, spun and remarkably got a shot away. "I just knew I had to get the ball, and hoped for the best," said Zorbas, who had 11 points. The ball hit the rim and kicked out, though, as Webb held on for a 60-58 win. Majd Masoud (12) of the M.M.

The Bruins won Saturday's OCAA playoff opener 25-18, 26-24, 25-10 for their ninth straight victory. Sheridan rallied from a 23-21 deficit in the second set to take a commanding 2-0 lead and then jumped out to an 8-1 advantage in third. "George Brown gave us everything we could handle tonight and we were a little fortunate to win that second set and then managed to pull away early in the third," said Sheridan coach Frank Pento. "But in the playoffs, a win is a win, so we can't complain too much, it's just about getting prepped for the next one." Chris Adams led Sheridan with 13 points (eight kills, four blocks and one ace) while hitting at a .583 clip. Josh Butler had eight kills and Jeremy Fantin had seven. Matt Bandy had a match-high eight digs while Fantin had seven. Justin Kong had three service aces. After a 5-5 start to the season, Sheridan has not lost since Jan. 10, dropping only one set during its streak. Sheridan, ranked No. 7 in the country, faces Ontario's best at the OCAA championship that starts today (Thursday) with a quarter-final matchup against the tournament host, Seneca College.
