Delbridge shines in big win for cbc

Kalgoorlie Miner Jordan Delbridge shot a game-high 21 points to highlight CBC’s decisive victory over Saints in Friday’s round of Division 1 men’s domestic basketball. Offensive spread was

pivotal, with the Collegians’ big four of Delbridge, Rob Thomson, Mike Exell and Kyle Kiernan eventually combining for 69 points. It made the assignment that much tougher for Saints, despite

the best efforts of Lucas Reschke, Kai Moran and Anthony Ashwin, who had a combined 45 points in an eventual 83-63 loss. It was a similar story in the other match played in the division,

with Jimmy Bowler and Garry Sidebottom accounting for 32 points between them in Olympians’ 50-39 triumph over The Franchise. Also on Friday, Olympians’ Division 1 women’s line-up offered a

stark reminder to rival teams of their offensive capacities in a systematic drubbing of Heat. The margin was 58 points on a night Leonie Cooper and Jaymi Worthington both had 20 points, but

with excellent support from Sheena Hanks (19) and Chelsea Kelly (12). Young CBC star Mackenzie Hoycard virtually single-handedly led her side to a tense four-point win over Saints on the

back of a 32-point effort. Hoycard’s offensive haul was 25 points better than teammate Elly McKay, with only Saints’ Kate Angus also able to score in double figures. GET THE LATEST NEWS FROM
