The Sacred Heart High School (SHHS) Senior Lady Saints hosted a four team senior girls' basketball tournament at the Halo Dome over the weekend.
Coach Lana Haider says teams from Canora, Porcupine Plain, Melville and SHHS competed at the mini-tournament. The tournament went very well for the Lady Saints, Haider comments.
The Sacred Heart girls claimed a win out of a tournament in Regina topping Regina Johnson, O'Neil and Tisdale. The Lady Saints have progressed well from that point, Haider suggests.
Following a tournament in Langenburg the first weekend in March, the girls will prepare for the seven team conference tournament at Notre Dame. The Lady Saints goal is to finish in the top four to win a berth at provincials.
The girls work well as a team on the court, Haider reports. They talk to each other. They set up a great defense and they work well as a team unit, she states.
Tournament results saw Melville claim first place with three wins Porcupine Plain finished second with two wins and a loss. Sacred Heart was third with a win and a pair of losses. Canora finished fourth with three losses.
Leading scorers for Sacred Heart were Shayla Merriam, Emily Kruger, Morgan Shymanski and Katie Inglis.
