The McLennan Highlanders rolled to a 111-55 victory over Strength 'N Motion tonight in the season opener at The Highlands.

They took the first double-double digit lead at 16-6 on a Jude Lambert floater in the lane with just under 13 minutes remaining in the half. McLennan outscored Strength 'N Motion 14-2 in the next three minutes to go up 30-8 midway through the half and pushed the lead to 52-27 at the break. The second half was much the same as the Highlanders cruised to the lopsided victory.
