RSEQ Final 4...Gaiters Claim 1st Title since 1999!
After losing in the final the last 2 years we finally broke through and defeated McGill in the final 68-63. We played very well for the most part, but managed to squander a 20 point 3rd quarter lead before pulling the game out at the end.
Friday we defeated Laval 76-65 playing our best game of the year to that point...I think we played a little better in the Final though. Our team came together this week after a difficult season that was filled with high expectations. Proud of our guys...they persevered and hung together. They lived, what does not kill us, will make us stronger.
We had strong performances all weekend from Majid, Kyle & Mike. Jona sealed the victory in the final minutes last night. We played 10 guys each night and everyone who stepped on the floor contributed to our success.
It is worth mentioning that our gym was packed and loud despite it being Study Week here at BU. Great community support and our department did a fantastic job organizing this RSEQ Final 4. Everything was 1st class.
Sorry for the brevity...feels like I have a thousand things to do before we go to Toronto on Tuesday AM. Games begin Thursday. Schedule and seeding to be determined later on Sunday. For more info you can check www.gaiters.ca
I will keep you posted!
