The Semiahmoo Scorpions had plenty to be thankful for on the weekend, after claiming top spot in the Richmond Thanksgiving Day Tournament.
The Scorpions won the U17/U18 division, beating the U18 Campbell River Tidal Wave 3-2 on penalty kicks in the championship game.
Earlier in the tournament, Semiahmoo lost to Campbell River, 2-1.
Earlier in the tournament, Semi beat CCB Elite 5-0, and the U18 Richmond Thunder by a 1-0 score.
Goalkeeper Amy Cornish was “a rock” between the pipes for Semaihmoo, according to coach Bob Balneaves, while a host of others also played well, including Rachelle Folk and Sarah Strachan, who chipped in with timely goals throughout the tourney.
