Cowichan High defeated South Delta to win the 2013 Bridgman Cup high school girls field hockey tournament at the University of Victoria on Oct. 13.
Cow High was a favourite heading into the tournament but only narrowly edged South Delta after the two teams played to a nil-nil draw in the final, and needed shootouts to decide it.
Of the four Greater Victoria schools participating only St. Michaels University School cracked the top-eight, faring well against powerhouse Cowichan in a respectable loss of 2-0. Oak Bay hung on against South Delta but couldn’t get the all-important goal in a 1-0 loss to eventual second-place finishers South Delta.
