After a timeaut they worked the bail ta Christnik for the open three- pointer. Maybe a fraction of an inch more and the hall wouldn't have bounced off the rm and ito the hands of an Irish player. Notre Dame suddenly started hitting iheir fouI abats and tIsai was the game. It alinost wenî in. That would have been nice," said Christnik, glancing towards the offending boop. He stiil managed 21 points ta lead ail Milton District scorers. "They were pressuqing us and we weren't used ta it," said Christnik, adding that it took them a while ta adapi. "If ou- shooting was an, we could have beat them. They were bitting threes like crazy." Captain, Sean McGee, who led the Mustangs with seven rebounds, also thinks the Mustangs could have won. "We keptiti close, but aur shots weren't falling. We're usuaily a much beiser shooiing team. We baven'î faced a teain that small and thai quick. "Up until today we were 11-0, so it's been an incredible season," said McGee, noting that froro the stant of the year ta that point they had become a 'ieam'." "h could have gone either way," said coach Steve Oliver. "The guys were getting tired, tIsai was the difference." Oliver also gave credit ta Notre Dame: "Tbey're strong defen- sively and they don'i turn tIse bai over very mucb." He also noted that two players - McGee and Stanley - fouled oui but that the players didn't quit. "It's been a great season. I don'î think any Milton District team bhas ever gone 10-O."
