McGill Holds Off Concordia in a Thrilling 69-62 Victory
McGill secured a hard-fought 69-62 win against Concordia, with Lily Rose Chatila pouring in 29 points. Despite an impressive 21-point effort from Serena Tchida, Concordia fell short in a game that featured multiple lead changes and high drama in the final quarter.
The RSEQ 2024-25 showdown at McGill Hall brought together two determined squads. The official attendance was 112, roughly 85% of capacity, creating an energetic, close-knit atmosphere. According to a quick check online, the day’s temperature hovered around 2°C, but inside the arena, the action was anything but chilly.
McGill started slowly, trailing 17-15 after the first quarter. Concordia’s Serena Tchida showcased her dominance early, finishing with 21 points and 10 rebounds while drawing multiple fouls in the paint. But the second period saw the home team surge ahead by outscoring Concordia 21-16, thanks to the scoring punch of Lily Rose Chatila, who hit four three-pointers on her way to a game-high 29 points.
Concordia fought back in the third quarter, utilizing the defensive pressure of Nelly Owusu (1 steal, multiple deflections) and the versatile playmaking of Victoria Lawrence (5 assists, 8 points). The visitors capitalized on turnovers to inch closer, closing the gap to a mere 3 points heading into the final frame.
McGill, however, found key contributions from bench players such as Emilia Diaz-Ruiz, who added 12 points and showed great effort on both ends of the floor. Daniella Mbengo also chipped in 12 points, knocking down timely shots, including a crucial three-pointer in the fourth quarter.
The last stanza saw Concordia trying to regain the lead behind the resilience of Tchida, who continued attacking the rim. Yet McGill’s defense held firm. Emma-Jane Scotten orchestrated the offense efficiently, dishing out 6 assists while making sure Chatila got the ball in prime scoring spots. A 23-13 run in the final period sealed the deal for McGill, pushing the margin to 7 at the buzzer.
While Concordia edged McGill in rebounds, 31-30, McGill’s superior shooting (24 of 51, 47.1%) and free-throw consistency (15 of 19, 78.9%) proved decisive. The officiating crew, led by Joli-Anne Levesque, maintained control in a physical contest featuring only 35 total fouls. It was a classic rivalry game, with two teams showcasing their talents in front of a spirited crowd.
In the end, McGill’s balanced offense, highlighted by Chatila’s 29-point performance, prevailed. Concordia, led by Tchida’s powerful inside game, will look to bounce back in their upcoming matchups. On a winter’s day in Montreal, McGill gave the home fans plenty to celebrate with a memorable 69-62 triumph.
