The Shaunavon Shadows represented the southwest at HOOPLA in Saskatoon on March 22 and 23. Thankfully the bad weather and roads cleared up so the Shadows were able to travel.  The Shadows went into the tournament ranked #2 and came up against #3 Clavet in the first game on Friday.  The Shadows suffered a tough loss 60-54.  High scorers for the Shadows were Matt Benesh with 18 pts while Jesse Voll contributed 17.  The Shadows rebounded on Saturday in the bronze medal match against Osler V.C.A. The boys game up with a big effort and won by a score of 81-74.  Matt Benesh had 31 pts while Jesse Voll had 19.  Congrats to the Shadows and their coach Mark Benesh and assistant coach Tim Miller!

This concludes the high school basketball season.  Athletes and coaches move onto the last two sports on the school calendar – badminton and track. Badminton playoffs will start on the 20th of April.
