The Grade 8 final saw the Semiahmoo Totems play host to the Stevenson-London Sharks in the championship game, which proved to be a lopsided affair.<\/p>\n

The Totems captured the title by an unbelievable score of 89-25 over the Sharks that had no top match contenders available to play the top ranked totems.<\/p>\n

The London-Sharks finished second in the Province simply for bragging rights in the off season in Stevenson and a chance to build for next year.<\/p>\n

The Grade 9 final saw St. Thomas Moore Aquinas square off against the Kelowna Owls in the final but in a match that St. Thomas Moore were just too much to handle for the Owls.<\/p>\n

They trailed early and STA kept adding to the lead at the half and handing the Owls a 49 27 loss to capture the Provincial Title as the Owls go home with a solid second place finish.<\/p>\n

The \u201cAA\u201d final Seycove Seyhawks from North Vancouver tipped-off against the Vernon Panthers that saw the Seyhawks open a 35 19 lead at the half.<\/p>\n

The second half was more evenly matched with Vernon outscoring Seycove 35-34 making it close to the final buzzer that saw the Seyhawks crowned champions by a narrow margin of 69-54.<\/p>\n

In the \u201cAAA\u201d final saw Lord Tweedsmuir Panthers take on the Abbotsford Panthers, who got off to a quick lead that expanded to 19-5 as well as a 22-14 after the opening quarter.<\/p>\n

The Panthers fought back closing it to 28-24 with a mere five minutes remaining in the second half, heading to halftime.<\/p>\n

They (Panthers) continued moving to within three points with a mere 4 minutes remaining and with a 1:43 left in the opening half.<\/p>\n

They managed to drop in a jumper allowing them to take a 33-32 lead heading to intermission.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Tweedsmuir Panthers continued to sink shots that saw them outscore Abby 20-13 expanding the lead to 56-46 heading into the fourth quarter.<\/p>\n

Each team managed to score 11 points in what was an evenly played quarter, but the end result saw Lord Tweedsmuir finish by a 67-57 victory capturing the Provincial title.<\/p>\n
