After trailing for the majority of the game, the Wildcats were able to save the best for last.
Burnaby Central was able to bounce back from Friday’s semifinal loss to Riverside, claiming bronze at the senior girls' provincial basketball championships.It's the first known medal for Burnaby Central in the girls' AAAA division since 1948.
Huynh got Burnaby Central's first bucket, knocking down a three-pointer to dig into the lead and kickstart the Wildcats' offense. "We're not a four, five, six, passes team. We're one, two, three and we're looking for a shot right away. So, the girls bought in and they understood what we needed to do." In the third, the Wildcats came out with energy, tallying 17 points while holding Yale to nine and trailed by six heading into the final frame.
Then, with 1:54 to go, Jayla Huynh knocked down a clutch three of her own to give Burnaby Central its first lead of the game, 63-61.
