Sabres finish fourth at home tourney

    The St. Anthony’s Sabres finished in fourth place at their home tournament over the weekend.
    The Sabres invited strong teams from the zone and beyond to compete at the eighth annual tournament. A last minute cancellation by Forestburg for Friday night’s games saw the Sabres ending up with a bye to face Rosemary after they defeated Youngstown.
    The Sabres started slow and were not able to make up the gap against the solid Rosemary defense and a strong zone press.  Tanner Borowicz was the high scorer for the Sabres with 30 points in the 100-58 loss.
    This put the Sabres in the third place match to face Heritage Christian Academy, who are ranked fifth in the province at the 1A level.
     Again the Sabres were slow out of the gates, but they pulled it together and matched Heritage point for point for most of the second half but, they were not able to close the gap in the 96-69 loss. Borowicz scored 16 points while Jordan Comstock scored 15 points and led the team in assists and steals.
    The Sabres were hoping they would get on track this week as they faced Trochu on Tuesday night. Results not available at press time.
