In the Win Column

The women's basketball team notched their first win of the year with a 74-65 win over Langara.

This is the first win for the women's team since January 2008 and first for second year head coach Jay Duke.  

"We got off to a bit of a slow start tonight, but I really happy with the way we executed near the end of the second quarter and that momentum carried through the game", commented Duke.  "We still have a lot of work ahead of us, but its nice for these players to finally get a win."

The 'Cats trailed 18-8 after the first quarter but outscored Langara 30-17 in the second to lead 38-35 at half.  CBC was led by second year guard Nicole Duke who had 21 points and Cleopatra Lanyero who added 15 points.
