Canada Loses an Overtime Thriller
The Senior Men looked like they had a shot a winning against a very good Venezuela team but lost steam in the overtime period. They looked like they may have been a little worn out and you can see that in the mental lapses like the missed boxouts. Regardless, Jermaine Anderson, Denham Brown and Carl English all scored in double figures and the team put on a very good show. This only serves to indicate that when all pistons are firing, or in this case most pistons are firing, and they can string together four quarters of effort Canada can hang with these upper tier teams. With all the players needing time to rest, Sunday is a day off and will be much needed for the coming round which could be harder than the one they managed to get out of. Play resumes on Labour Day.
