Day 6 Recap: Defending Senior Division champs knocked out of All Native Tourney
It was moving day at the All Native Basketball Tournament in Prince Rupert Feb. 16 including the surprising movement of the defending Senior Division champions out of the tournament.
Similkameen was relegated to the elimination bracket by second-seeded Skidegate, but has since eliminated Haisla , Heiltsuk , Prince Rupert and Gitxaala. They play Lax Kw’alaams today at 11 a.m. If they win that game they will still have to get by third-ranked Massett and the winner of Skidegate and Burnaby, who play this afternoon, for a berth in the final.
But the top-ranked team would bear down in the fourth, stepping up the defence and making a run and closing the gap to 53-48 with just over a minute to go. Following a Haisla basket, a Vancouver free-throw and three-pointer brought them within three with 10 seconds on the clock. In the evening draw, however, they would fall into the elimination bracket to second-ranked Similkameen, who also beat Laxgalts’ap and Hesquiaht en route to a berth in the final tomorrow at 1 p.m.
