Saint John Riptide News Release
(SAINT JOHN, NB): The Saint John Mill Rats face the two time defending NBL Canada champion Windsor Express tonight at 7 PM at Harbour Station.
"Windsor is always a big game for us, anytime you get to match up with an organization that's won a championship, its a great test" said Mill Rats President Ian McCarthy. "We need our fans to come out tonight and be really loud in their support. I think tonight's game will have a playoff atmosphere to it."
Saint John has clinched the #2 seed in the Atlantic Division, while Windsor has clinched the #2 see in the Central Division. This is the only visit the Express make to Harbour Station this season unless both teams were to meet in the NBL Canada Finals.
Saint John held a 22-point lead back on March 20th but Windsor made a tremendous come back to win the game 116-104 in overtime.
Chris Commons leads the Express with 20.46 points per game.
