That all changed as SAA defeated Vancouver Christian in the bronze medal match to return home with a souvenir.

Nash Pearce was named a second-team all-star and Ryder Litke was honoured as a first-team all-star.

The girls team was in the Castlegar and Nelson for their provincial championship, making their second-ever appearance at the tournament.
