Colts senior girls off to OFSSA basketball championships
submitted to sarniasports.com November 17th, 2011

 

Sarnia, ON - Ashley Bisson made the biggest free throw of her life with 3 tenths of a second remaining in the game as the St. Clair Colts Senior Girls Basketball team came away with a 40-39 victory over Tecumseh St. Anne’s in the SWOSSAA AAAA Finals Wednesday night at St. Clair.

With the win, the Colts qualified for the OFSAA Championships to be played in Windsor, November 24-26.

The Colts survived at thrilling 71-68 double overtime semi final against Chatham on Tuesday and were heavy underdogs against St. Anne. St. Anne’s tied the game at 39 late in the 4th quarter and actually had a shot that could have won the game. Bisson was fouled on the rebound and sent to the line for the winning free throw. The Colts stifling defence held the high powered St. Anne’s offence down all night. The defence on the boards was huge and was led by Sam Kaldaway, Lexi Hanly and Karly Adair.

Alex Hodgins led the Colts with 16 points, Jessica Drury added 10 and Bisson had 7. Hodgins, Drury and Bisson combined for 7 three pointers.
