Once again, Monsignor McCoy reigns supreme when it comes to the local varsity girls basketball league.
The Colts beat a hard-working Crescent Heights team 71-35 on home court Thursday in the Southeast Basketball Conference final, which serves a preliminary title before the 3A South Zone championships next week.
Taytem Rath led a balanced attack for McCoy with 12 points, though seven others had at least two field goals.
Zaira Miller-Shackleton had eight for Crescent Heights, which was 3-3 in the regular season to McCoy’s 6-0 record.
Both teams are next off to zones, where McCoy and host Taber’s WR Myers are the prohibitive favourites. Myers is ranked first in Alberta in 3A, while McCoy is ranked fourth.
