Lajeunesse is crowned champ

There was only one way to prove who the best sr. girls basketball team is and WECSSAA made it happen. A week long tournament gave high school's a chance to battle for supremacy. Kennedy and Lajeunesse made it to the end but only one could hoist the new WECSSAA championship trophy Friday night at the Clipperdome.

Lajeunesse led 29-22 at the half and opened up their lead to ten points late in the third quarter. Kennedy made a push and cut the deficit to six on a three-pointer by Alisha Murray, who led all scorers with 20 points. Lajeunesse responded with two quick baskets to regain their ten point advantage and held on for a 48-38 win. The Royals are crowned the first WECSSAA high school champions.
