This past weekend, the Senior Girls Basketball Spartans participated in the 48th Annual BCS Invitational Girls Basketball Tournament. They won the Consolation Winner Plaque. Julia Lee was awarded a Tournament All-Star Trophy.
Last week, the Spartans travelled to Drummondville to take on La Poudriere at their school. I heard that the game was against a very tough opponent who pressed and played well, also that at some point it was decided to remove the scores from the scoreboard as their lead went from 20 to 30 to 40 and ultimately to 50+ points. It was a very tough loss for the Spartans with a final score of 11-62.
On January 10, a new tradition began as Stanstead College and Bishop’s College School met in the inaugural 143 Rivalry Game at the Molson Arena at Bishop’s University. In a hard-fought and spirited contest, Stanstead battled until the final minutes before falling 5–3 to BCS.
This past weekend, the Senior Girl Basketball Spartans traveled to Quebec City to participate in the 53rd Annual Anderson-Bailly Small Schools Basketball Tournament.
Before attending Stanstead College, I did not participate in many team sports. My whole life, I skied during the winter and sailed during the summer. During those years, I did make my school soccer team and played for one season, and then a couple of years later I played flag football for two consecutive seasons.
