MONTREAL –
Charles Robert (Vaudreuil, QC/Suffield Academy) scored 22 points and
Etienne Gagnon (Longueuil, QC/Cegep de Sherbrooke) hauled in 22 rebounds, but it was not enough as the Bishop's Gaiters fell to the UQAM Citadins 74-65 in an RSEQ semifinal on Wednesday night in Montreal.
The loss ends the Gaiters' season.
It was close through the opening two quarters with UQAM holding a three-point advantage at halftime. They quickly extended their lead to as much as 15, but Bishop's refused to go away and cut the advantage to five with just over a minute to play. The Gaiters couldn't get any closer and ultimately fell to the defending RSEQ champions.
Obi Dike added 14 points to round out the Gaiters in double figures.
