  1. The Hornets Ultimate teams hosted the 3rd annual Southern Flights tournament this weekend. We had 25 teams attend for two days of incredible competition. The grade 8’s picked up their first two wins of the season finishing in 8th place. The Jr. Squad went 2-1 on day one setting up a quarter final match up against Seaton. They lost a close game 7-6 and secured 5th place against Grand Forks in their final game of the day. The Sr. Team had a great Friday going 3-0 winning their pool to set up a quarter final match against OKM. They played a great game in some tough conditions but overall could not get ahead. They would finish in 7th place after a huge 13-2 win over Seaton. Great job this weekend Hornets!
