Date: January 31, 2014
The game between closely ranked teams ended with 7th ranked Thunderbirds' (4-13) home loss to sixth ranked Golden Gaels (8-9) in Sault Ste. Marie, ON 85-90 on Friday. The guests trailed by 1 point after first quarter, but they rallied back to get the 11-point lead at the halftime and eventually won the game 90-85. Golden Gaels made 28-of-32 free shots (87.5 percent) during the game. Golden Gaels outrebounded Thunderbirds 49-31 including 20 on the offensive glass. Quite impressive performance for forward Mackenzie Simpson (198) who helped to win the game recording a double-double by scoring 14 points and 16 rebounds. Guard Sukhpreet Singh (188) contributed with 19 points and 8 rebounds for the winners. Five Golden Gaels players scored in double figures. point guard Jimmy Bilenga (183-91) answered with 18 points and 5 rebounds and guard Reynaldo Carnakie (193) added 16 points and 5 steals in the effort for Thunderbirds. Thunderbirds' coach tried various players' combinations and tested in total eleven players, but that didn't help to avoid defeat in this game. Golden Gaels moved-up to fifth place, which they share with TWU. Thunderbirds lost their fourth game in a row. They keep the seventh position with 13 games lost. Golden Gaels will face higher ranked Voyageurs (#4) in Sudbury, ON in the next round and it will be quite challenging to get another victory. Thunderbirds will play on the road against Lions in Toronto, ON and it may be a tough game between close rivals.
