- The Hornet’s Sr. Ultimate team travelled to Penticton for games against Summerland and Pen Hi last night. The first game against Summerland was a windy affair seeing both sides struggle in the windy conditions. The Hornets pulled it together to sneak out a 6-4 victory. During the second game against Pen Hi, the conditions were much more favorable, and the Hornet’s dominated in the 13-5 victory. The Hornets are traveling to Kelowna on Friday for a tournament against some of the best teams across the Okanagan. Way to go Hornets!
