The Burnaby Central Wildcats showed the required ‘bounce-back’ and kept their senior girls AAA provincial hopes alive, thanks to a 58-46 triumph over Kitsilano on Tuesday.
Coming off a harsh 77-27 setback to league rival New Westminster in their second game at the Lower Mainland tournament, the Wildcats responded with discipline and a strong performance on both sides of the ball to eliminate Kits.
Jennifer Mascardo led the way offensively with 23 points, while Samantha Albanese scored 13 points and Karis Duchame added 10.
Still in a must-win position, Burnaby Central played Carson Graham on Thursday (past the NOW’s deadline).
