By Jake Courtepatte We the North. The Under-13 York North Avengers rode a perfect 3 – 0 record to an Ontario Cup win in Milton last weekend, meeting a fellow York rival in the winner-take-all final on Sunday. Opening the eight-team tournament in a high-scoring affair with Guelph on Friday, the Avengers rode a 58 – 57 win into a perfect 2 – 0 Saturday, knocking off the team from Kitchener-Waterloo 44 – 38 before beating the Grimsby Grizzlies 48 – 34. That set up a meeting with the York South Silver Knights, the only other team to bring a perfect record into the final day. “The Silver Knights were a tough opponent,” said coach Casey Emery, who added that around “90-percent” of the York North team hailed from Aurora. The Avengers got off to a hot start, putting up fourteen straight points to open the game thanks to seven-for-nine shooting on their field goal attempts. From there, Emery said the Avengers “never looked back”, taking the game and the Ontario Championship by a score of 48 – 42. ]]> 20533 2018-05-02 15:41:52 2018-05-02 19:41:52
