Box Score
Ben Davis (Mississauga/Central Wyoming) put down a game winning bucket with just two seconds left as the Warriors escaped with a thrilling 82-81 win over the Western Mustangs on Saturday afternoon at the PAC.
What was an exciting day of action at the PAC with so many promotions going on (Think Pink, HeForShe, Staff and Faculty Appreciation Day); Davis was able to put an exclamation mark with a Warrior victory.
With two Mustangs all over the fifth year forward jumped into one of the defenders, kissed it off the glass and the rest is history. Davis went on to miss the free throw, which turned out to be the right play giving Western less than two seconds to throw up a prayer that would not be answered.
Davis finished the game with 17 points going 6-for-12 from the field with two from beyond the arc.
Jon Ravenhorst (Sarnia/Sarnia Northern) was the next best Warrior scorer with 16 points, thanks to a very successful day from beyond the arc, knocking down four including one in the dying minutes to tie the game at 77's.
Mike Pereira (Kitchener/Resurrection Secondary) and
Simon Petrov (Waterloo/Sir John A. Macdonald Secondary) were also in double figures with 15 and 12 respectively. On the boards, rookie forward
Nedim Hodzic (Waterloo, Sir John A. Macdonald Secondary) had a nice game with eight rebounds.
Leading Western was Eriq Jenkins who led all scorers with 22 points, while also corralling nine rebounds.
