Third-year guard Rachael Sider recorded 39 points and 11 boards, including a game-winning three-pointer, in leading the Varsity Blues women’s basketball team to two big wins at home this weekend.
The New Westminster, B.C., native drained a three with one second remaining as Toronto came from behind to defeat the York Lions, 66-65, on Saturday night. Sider recorded her first career double-double, matching her career-high of 21 points and setting a new mark with 10 boards on the night.
A philosophy and political science major, Sider also tallied a game-high 18 points as U of T defeated the Laurentian Lady Vees on Friday night.
