Falcons' corner
New year, same game. Let's see
how our Falcons are doing in sports.
Basketball
The men squeaked by the Lambton Lions in overtime with a final score of 83-71.
The Falcons started off on top with a 17-10 lead into the second quarter.
A huge thanks to Jordan Fray for his two dunks and Dexton Freemantle's play, which forced Lambton to take a timeout.
The Lions managed to catch up and tied the game in the final quarter, when Lambton's Jason Marshell sunk in a three-pointer.
The men came out victorious, having taken control of the game early in overtime.
The team now sits in fourth place in the OCAA West Division standings.
The women also tasted victory after crushing the Lambton Lions 68-30.
Honourable mentions to Rachel Jaworowicz, who scored 14 points in the game, and Ashley Galloway withan impressive 13 rebounds.
Catch the men and women January 22, who face off against Humber and Niagara January 25.
Volleyball
The men and women make being on the road seem like a walk in the park, as both teams emerged victorious against Boréal Vipères and the Cambrian Golden Shield.
The men won three straight sets against Boréal, with Scott Brannigan racking up 10 points in his first match of the year.
The Falcons again won three straight sets against Cambrian with Mathieu Poulin's 13 points and five service aces. Special mention to Poulin for leading the OCAA in points per set (5.1) and total aces (21)!
The team now sits in third place in the OCAA West Division.
The women passed Humber to gain first place in the OCAA West Division with 20 points, and extended their winning streak to 10 matches — the college's most consecutive women's volleyball matches won in a season.
The wins against Boréal and Cambrian were led by Shelby Charlton who finished off Boréal with 11 points, and 16 points against Cambrian. Congratulations, Shelby!
Catch the teams in action against St. Clair on January 23, Niagara on January 25 and Conestoga on January 28.
Badminton
Both teams competed in the Centennial College Invitational, which hosted the province's top talents, where rookie Alex Duong put up a great fight in the men's singles semi-finals against Redeemer's Owen Kurvitz.
Curling
The teams competed in the second annual Humber College bonspiel where the men finished with a win against the Mountaineers and a tie against the Humber Hawks.
The women defeated Mohawk but lost to the host team.
