St. Anne lost despite a true team effort on the offense, the best among them being Jordan Davis, who almost dropped a double-double on 19 points and nine rebounds. Davis hasn't dropped below two steals for eight straight games. Another player making a difference was Chris Link, who scored 13 points along with six rebounds.
