The St. Anthony’s Sabres senior boys basketball team had a strong game but lost momentum and fell to the Acme junior varsity team last Tuesday by seven points.
The Sabres were on the road to face Acme, and the game started strong. They were up by as many as 12 points before the Redmen thundered back. Turnovers cost the Sabres in the final quarter and gave Acme the win, 69-62.
Tanner Borowicz had a dominating game with 26 points and 18 rebounds, Emmanuelle Doolittle had 10 points.
Ball control and strong passing is what the team will be concentrating on as they prepare for zones coming up March 9 and 19 at Olds Koinonia. It will be a tough field at the tournament as Acme is handily holding on to the top spot in the province at the 1A level, and Rosemary is a honourable mention.
