Team BC was led by Elise Froese, who scored 14 points and four rebounds. Lanette Boland and Tara Llanes had seven points each for BC.
“It’s always an honour to represent B.C. at the biggest tournament the women’s game has all year,” states Tara Llanes, Senior National Team player and B.C. Breaker. “We have a good mix of players that are continually trying to teach and help each other grow. Our team is quite young and for some this will be their first time playing at women’s nationals.”
