Cougars finish Redbird Classic with 2-1 record

Friday – Regina 67, Toronto 62
Alyssia Kajati piled up 23 points and 15 rebounds and Jennilea Coppola also chipped in with a double-double (12 points, 11 rebounds), leading the Cougars to a five-point win over Toronto on Friday afternoon in Montreal.
 
The Cougars led from wire to wire, though they saw a 17-point second-quarter lead all but disappear after a 16-2 run by Toronto that spanned the final eight minutes of the first half and part of the first minute of the third quarter. The Varsity Blues got to within one point with just over four minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, but the Cougars were able to hold off Toronto down the stretch with the assistance of two free throws apiece from Kajati and Kehlsie Crone in the final seconds.
 
Katie Polischuk added 10 points for the Cougars, while Crone and Coppola both had five assists. Maddy Baker led Toronto with 12 points.

Saturday – McGill 73, Regina 41
McGill scored the first eight points of the game and never looked back, leading from wire to wire in a 32-point win over the Cougars.

Carolann Cloutier led McGill with 16 points in the win, while Kajati again led the Cougars with 14 points and fell just short of a double-double with nine rebounds.

Sunday - Regina 82, Lakehead 64
The Cougars closed out the tournament with a win over Lakehead in a game that was close until a huge 13-2 run at the end of the third quarter.

Kajati led the team in scoring for the third time in as many days, ending up with 21 points and eight rebounds. Caitlin Zacharias hit four triples and ended up with 20 points, while Christina McCusker scored 11 and pulled down 10 rebounds for a double-double. Kehlsie Crone was 6-for-10 from the field and added 14 points in the win.
