The Kelowna United/UBCO Junior Heat U18 boys returned home with a silver medal from the College Showcase soccer tournament last weekend in Seattle.

On the second leg of the PacNW Winter Classic tournament, the KU/Heat team reached the final before losing 2-0 to Washington East.

The Kelowna/UBCO boys didn’t allow a goal in the round robin, going 4-0 with wins over Pacific FC Revolution, U18 Boys Whitecaps Academy, the Central Washington Sounders and Eastside FC.

The KU/UBCO U15 boys also made the trip and posted a solid 2-1 record, narrowly missing a berth in the medal round.

The Kelowna team defeated the Crossfire Premier and ISC Gunners, before falling to Rainer Valley Premier.
