Jaffray Secondary School Rebels Junior Girls basketball team is now ranked among the top 10 in B.C, after a hard-fought battle at provincials in Surrey from Feb. 23 to 25.
The team clinched three of their five games, but were ultimately eliminated from the championship bracket and ended up in 10th place.
“They had put everything they had into their games. They fought hard, showed team spirit and above all, demonstrated sportsmanship, coming home 10th overall in the tournament, proving that they were a small school with big game,” stated coach Kevin French in an e-mail.
