Not only did the Western Canada Redmen make a lot of 3-pointers, they made them at crucial parts of the game.
The Redmen nailed eight shots from outside the arch in the first half, and followed that up with six more in the second half to finish off Edmonton’s St. Francis Xavier Rams 76-69 in the boys final of the Redmen Invitational Tournament.
“That was a stressfull game,” said Redmen’s head coach Steve Wiebe. “St.Francis has some real athletes on their team and they fly around the court and they put pressure on the ball from all angles.
The final pitted the province’s No. 1-ranked team (Redmen) versus the No. 2-ranked team (Rams).
However, those rankings may change after the Redmen lost to the Cardston Cougars in last weekend’s Top Dog tournament at Sir Winston Churchill.
Eli Prochnau and Francis Cormier each chipped in with 19 points to pace the Redmen’s scoring and Ammon Crowfoot added 17 points.
