The Trinity Western Spartans were four minutes away from their first ever victory over the Simon Fraser Clan.
But the Clan women鈥檚 basketball team scored the game鈥檚 final 11 points to win 56-50 in non-conference action at the 91原创 Events Centre on Thursday (Dec. 30).
The Spartans trailed by 10 after the first quarter, but used a strong second quarter to get back into the game.
鈥淲e are trying to convince our girls that defence does feed the offence. And that was one of the adjustments that we made in the second quarter, we had more defensive pressure and got some rebounds, which resulted in easy looks,鈥漵aid coach Cheryl Jean-Paul.
