6'1" Simon Farine had 26 points while playing all 40 minutes, the Tigers grabbed 18 offensive rebounds and 6'5" William Yengue hit his only shot of the game, a big three pointer late in the game to give his team the lead for good as Dal edged the host Rouge et Or. Farine shook off a tough night from downtown (1-6) with 18 first-half points, made several plays down the stretch and defend the ball very well in gutting out a fine performance. His counterpart at the point for Laval, 5'9" Xavier Baribeau was also very good knocking down 4-8 3's including a pair of big 3's in the fourth quarter, finishing with 14 points and running the show very well. 6'3" J.F. Beaulieu-Mahieux led Laval with 18 points, 7 rebounds while gritty, maximum-effort 6'5" F.O. Gagnon-Hebert had a tidy 11 point/7 rebound performance with some blocks thrown in. 6'4" Jerome Turcotte battled foul trouble all night, finishing with 0 points before drawing his fifth foul, one of 29 overall against Laval against only 12 for Dal, which shot 38 free throws. 6'3" Marcus Wong (10 points, 9 rebounds) went only 3-13 from the floor, but one was a big put back late in the game for the Tigers. 6'9" Joe Schow added 11 points/8 rebounds for Dal in advance of meeting his ex-teammates Calgary Dinos tomorrow at 4 PM.
