Veteran centre Andrew Cicuttini led the Dundas school with 27 points, while Quinn Henderson added 20 points.
The Parkside Panthers next play either Cardinal McGuigan of Toronto (16 seed) or ESC Theriault of Timmins (18 seed), both of whom lost their games earlier today.
McGuigan and Theriault play this evening, with the winner moving on to face Parkside tomorrow afternoon.
