After winning four games in a row on the weekend of Feb. 27-28, the Burns Lake Midget team is now getting ready for provincials in Port Alberni on March 13-16.
Team manager Tracey Brown said the Burns Lake team had an amazing comeback after beating Vanderhoof, with the winning goal scored by Brock Worthing. They then defeated Prince Rupert, Fraser Lake and Houston to win the zone title.
Brown said some of the players are excited to travel to provincials for the first time.
The team consists of a solid defense with goalie Jamie Ferguson keeping the pucks out of the net along with some more scoring power from the second line and two girl players – Kaja Kesterke and Lauren Solecki – who help hold the third line.
