JV girls were finalists in the Neepawa Collegiate Basketball Tournament on February 13 and 14th, 2020. The team played Virden Collegiate in their opening game, winning 50-12. The semi-final game was played on Friday night against the home team, Neepawa in front of a packed crowd. It was an exciting, high scoring game with a fast tempo. The Swan Valley Tigers held a lead throughout the game but Neepawa and their fans were determined to not give in easily, cutting the lead to only 6 points by the end of the third quarter. <\/p>\n

Swan Valley Tigers came out in the fourth quarter and took control of the game with their relentless press, creating many turnovers. The final score of the game was 84-56 for Swan Valley. <\/p>\n

Swan Valley played The Pas in the Finals and it was a defensive battle throughout the game. The two teams had previously played against each other in the Swan Valley Tigers home tournament back in December. Swan Valley won a close game at that tournament and this time, The Pas returned the favour. Both teams utilized a press and a stingy defence which limited offensive opportunities.<\/p>\n

The JV girls had a great tournament in Neepawa and are now looking forward to the Provincial Qualifier Tournament in Dauphin on February 25th.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
