1. The Hornets Ultimate team hosted their 2nd annual Southern Flights tournament over the weekend. The Jr. Squad finished with a final record of 3-3 finishing in 9th place overall with a big win over Princess Margaret in their 9th place game. The Sr. Team would face some tough competition but finished 3-0 after round robin play on Friday. The Hornets would ride their winning streak into the quarterfinals against Grand Forks Jr. They played a tight game and came ahead with the victory 7-4. In the semifinals, the Hornet’s faced off against Summerland Secondary. In another very tight game, the Hornets came out on top finishing with a final score of 10-7 setting up a final against Grand Forks Sr. The Hornets were in tough against a seasoned provincial squad but would eventually lose 11 – 3. Overall, we are very proud of your 2nd place finish with a record of 5-1 in the tournament. Way to go Hornets!

1. The Senior and Junior Girls Soccer Teams competed in the Osoyoos Tournament this last weekend. We are very proud of our juniors for braving it against all senior teams for their first games of the season.
