It was a fast paced, back and forth game. With a packed gym of fans, our wildcats continued to press & hustle. Our bench clapping & cheering right back! With Bradford ending the first half 34-23, we knew an explosive scoring run was needed in the second half & our boys delivered - working the high/low and out scoring Bradford 14-8 in the 3rd. With 4 mins left in the 4th, game tied at 45-45, the win could have went either way. Unfortunately a few turnovers and fouls that brought BDHS to the line, sealed our season fate, with Bradford taking the game 57-50. Thanks for an amazing record-long season boys - you displayed so much heart, hard-work, resilience & determination throughout. You represented Eastview well & have made your coaches very proud!<span style="white-space:pre;"> </span></div><div><span style="white-space:pre;"> </span></div><div>Attention <strong>Boys Hockey Players</strong>: Our playoff game against Banting has been rescheduled for next Wednesday April 6 at 2:30pm.
