Assiniboia Blizzard Rockets Through Central

It was a big and large Assiniboia Rockets JV girls basketball team that took on the Central Cyclones Junior Girls team Monday evening.

Despite the Cyclones literally hitting the hardwood on more than one occasion to there was no stopping the Assiniboia blizzard.

In the end the Cyclones were covered with a six foot deep avalanche losing 57 - 32.
