Rogues continue winning at home
Newfoundland wins series against Sudbury
The Newfoundland Rogues kicked their last regular season homestand of the season the right way over the weekend.
The Rogues (18-13) won two of three games over the Sudbury Five at the Mary Brown’s Centre in St. John’s.
The wins pushed Newfoundland’s home record to an impressive 15-4, and moved them one game ahead of Sudbury in the Basketball Super League (BSL) standings.
The Rogues now sit in fourth place in the six-team league. They’re tied with the London Lightning for the second-most wins in the league, but because the Windsor Express has a better winning percentage despite playing seven fewer games, they’re ranked in third place.
The Kitchener-waterloo Titans sit in first place at 20-9. Trailing the Rogues are the Five and the Montreal Toundra.
