With two key injured players out for now, the boys anticipated a battle. After the first quarter of play, the boys were able to match point for point, with Brady Swain & Jack Rissanen putting 14 points on the board. However some unfortunate turnovers in the second quarter allowed for Bradford to take the lead. While we were able to keep a close scoring gap and fight hard in the last half of the game, the boys unfortunately ran out of time to take the lead and ended the well fought game with a score of 56 to 58. An unfortunate loss, but your coaches are proud of how the team continues to build & work together to overcome obstacles. Enjoy your break & look forward to seeing a full team in the new year, healthy and rested!<br><br>Now for a Boys Hockey Update:<br>The Boys traveled to Midland yesterday for the St. Theresa's Christmas Classic. In their first game the Wildcats faced off against the Jean Vanier Storm and came up short in a 2-1 loss. In their next game, the Boys rallied for a 5-1 route of the Georgain Bay Bears. In the A Championship, the Wildcats would once again line up against Jean Vanier and this time made no mistake, blowing the Storm out 4-2. Way to go Cats and good luck today against OSS.<br><br>The junior boys basketball team continued their winning streak against Bradford last night in a score of 60-44. While the cats got off to a very slow start, the offensive push of Cal McArthur, Graeme Galloway and Kevin Shang changed the tone of the game. <br>As coach K says, defense wins games and it was the defensive energy of Gibby Grigoriadis and Matt Higgs that controlled the pace of the second half. <br>Great work boys! No practice Wednesday. See you Thursday right after school. <br><br>Yesterday our girls team had an amazing performance, as we were missing 7 players. Despite the short bench, the team rallied after falling behind 1-0 to defeat Banting 3-1. Goal scorers we were Audrey Busby, Shayla Koski-Arges and Emma Campbell. Defence Abi Fenik and Abbi Fee were great as were goalies Faith Miller and Hunter Northcott.<br>Coaches Hargreaves and Carl wish the team Happy Holidays and look forward to resuming hockey in the new year!<br><br></p><h2>Tuesday December 18th</h2><p><br>Attention all library patrons!

Thanks.<br><br>The Eastview Junior Boys Basketball team participated in the Georgian Grizzlies tournament this weekend. Losing their opening match against the Innisdale Invaders on Thursday made a trip to the final seem unlikely. But the wildcats never quit, beating Notre Dame in the second game by 7 points, and thumping the Nantyr Tritons by 45 points in a game that was nothing but net for the wildcats. <br>In the semi final game against Chippewa, Eastview got off to a flat start but in the second half, some gritty man to man defense helped them to clinch a spot in the final. <br>And what a final it was! Eastview met Innisdale again for the third time in three days but the wildcats were determined this time to find a way to shut down the innisdale offense. Eastview took charge right from the beginning, controlling both the pace and energy of the game. It was a nail biter throughout but the wildcat pressure in the final minutes led to a 7 point victory to win the game AND the tournament. <br>All Star of the game was awarded to Liam Alexander and tournament MVP was Cal McArthur. Coach K is so proud of the collective efforts of this team and the gritty defense that really was the deciding factor in this tournament. Light practice tonight from 5-6:30 in preparation for Bradford tomorrow. Go cats!<br></p> | | | |

Despite having a shorter bench, the seven boys who were able to play came out strong & won all three of their games to become tournament champions! The tournament was a great opportunity to continue to build on team chemistry and allow for the entire team to see the court. Game 1 versus Novelle had the boys working hard with a final score of 54-53 (with Brady Swain & Nathan Tucker sinking the most baskets). Game 2 the boys took on Barrie North again and crushed them with a score of 75-27. Top scorers in that game were Jack Rissanen and Sam Sax-Martin. The championship game the boys faced John F. Ross Collegiate from Guelph and finished with a score of 88 to 63. Great work this weekend boys! Practice tonight at 3 pm.<br><br>Congratulations to the Girls Curling Team on their incredible success this weekend at the Gore Mutual Tournament. With most team members playing in new positions, Skip Pam Williamson called and shot two nearly perfect first games beating Holy Trinity 14-1 and Georgian Bay also 14-1, forcing both teams to concede the games early. Winning the right to play in the A side final, Eastview fought hard to squash St Theresa, but it was not to be and we dropped to the B side to play Georgian Bay once again. With an early steal of 5 points, Midland got their claws out and end by end climbed their way out of the hole taking the lead 9 to 5. Regrouping at half time, Pam Williamson and her team dug their heals in and tied the game, forcing an extra end. With the aid of Lily McChesney, Sierra Hardwick, Lindsay Stamper, and Zoe Peeters, Pam managed to steal 2 more points to win the game 11 to 9. In Second place, Eastview moves on to The Gore Regionals in February. Well done Ladies!
