St. Claire College falter in Etobicoke

The St. Clair College Men's Basketball (11-3) team fell for the third time in league play this season after a 93-82 loss to Humber College in Etobicoke Sunday afternoon. The Saints were behind 24-19 after the opening frame before the teams played a high scoring second quarter that sent them to the locker room with Humber ahead 53-48. However, in the decisive third quarter St. Clair could only muster two points in the first five minutes as Humber started to pull away. Early in the fourth quarter the Saints trailed by as much as 15 points at 77-62 and could not make much of a dent in the gap the remainder of the contest. Statistically St. Clair was outshot from the floor (49%-to-46%) and from distance (9-to-7) but were also not able to match Humber on the boards getting outfought 47-41. Saints' forward Chad Vincent-Simon (6'4''-F, college: Cloud County) (Scarborough, ON) scored a game high 30 points for the second consecutive game which included 10-of-12 from the charity stripe. Jesiah Deerr (6'3''-G) (Whitby, ON) managed 17 points with teammates Mazin Tiea (C) (Windsor, ON/Kennedy) and Jadon Tillman (G) (Warren, MI) each reaching double figures with 12 points apiece for St. Clair. The St. Clair Men host a pair of home games next weekend at the SportsPlex with Canadore College (North Bay) visiting Saturday before Niagara College (Welland) stops in on Sunday.
