It felt like overtime Saturday afternoon at the Cégep de Sept-Îles gymnasium, after the free throw made by Tareq Konombo, with only 3.2 seconds remaining on the clock. This basket brought the score to 62-62. The Kioki of Saint-Félicien had enough time, scoring at the sound of the siren. The Voyageurs lost 64-62.
A victory for the September team would have assured their place in the playoffs. Coach Denis Gagnon’s squad still has its fate in its hands with two other games to go.
“They (Saint-Félicien) played well. We lacked rhythm in the second quarter (score 29-36 at halftime). We didn’t have the same motivation as during the match against Jonquière, we didn’t have the desire to win,” summarized Denis Gagnon.
The Voyageurs du Cégep de Sept-Îles will end their regular season in two weekends, on the road, with a game in Baie-Comeau on Saturday, March 9 against the Trappeurs and one on Sunday, March 10 in Saint-Félicien.
