The Junior Girls Basketball team completed their Elk Island Athletic Association season by capturing the gold medal this past Tuesday, March 11th.  After a regular season record of 5 wins to 1 loss, the girls earned the #1 seed for the playoff and home court. 

After defeating SouthPointe in the semi-final game, the Saints hosted Fultonvale for the championship.  It was a very close and hard fought match with the St Mary’s Saints prevailing and capturing the trophy by a score of 48-42.  It was a wonderful way to end a very successful season. 

Junior girls won three tournaments during the basketball season.

Previously, the ladies won gold in the pre-season tournament held in Fort Saskatchewan back in January.  The team also captured gold in the tournament they hosted by defeating Glen Avon from St Paul in early February. 

“Congratulations girls!  I want to thank the parents for their support as well,” stated Head Coach Mark Kobelsky.
