In Saskatoon, the Hurricanes earned a 7-3 victory over a team from Ontario.
It was the first time in 14 years that a B.C.-based team won the national title, following Surrey Pegasus’ victory in 2004.
The team also won the tournament’s fair-play award, and Nicky Soolsma won the top scorer award.
More to come.
