Cyclones win Yorkton girls basketball tournament

Central posts pair of victories to land top spot in senior girls tourney
This time of high school basketball season is all about building towards the big games in March – and with that in mind, the Central Cyclones girls squad are off to a pretty good start.

The Cyclones won a trio of games at a tournament in Yorkton this past weekend to take first place, defeating North Battleford John Paul II in the final.

Malea Kletzel, who starts at guard despite only being in Grade 10, scored 28 points in their tournament opening win over Melville, while third-year veterans Alexa Watterson, Emily Blackmore and Sage McCulloch led the Cyclones to victories over Yorkton Regional in their second contest and John Paul II in the gold medal game.

Central is now off until the new year, when they face Peacock in a highly anticipated league match-up on Tuesday, Jan. 7.
