Congratulations also to Jacob Briand
for placing fourth, as well as to Abhishek Saini, Sarah Long, Zein Youssef, and
Mujo Leuzanovic for excellent effort.
The hard work for the team is not over… more practice is still under way
as they prepare for OFSAA!
The Junior Boys’ Basketball team
also displayed their hard work, talent, and dedication throughout the season,
winning the SWOSSAA AAAA championship and making Massey proud!!!
After a slow first quarter, the
Mustangs scored 16 points in the second quarter and 34 points in the second
half, eventually dominating Sarnia St. Pat’s with a final score of 60-45. Damir Ferhatovic once again showed his
skills, making 7 three pointers, while Ali Sayed-Ali contributed 3 more three
pointers as well. More noteworthy play
was also given by Arsh Sidhu, who shut down St. Pats’ seven foot center with
his excellent defence! Next up for the
team… the Junior Basketball Championship in Unionville, Ontario, held on
Thursday February 27th!
Congratulations once again to all of
our talented and hardworking athletes and coaches!
