Two running backs from Surrey are among 56 players who have advanced to the final stage of try-outs for the provincial under-18 football squad which will play at the FBU International Games in Texas next January.
Jamel Lyles of the Lord Tweedsmuir Panthers high school team and Bashiru Sise-Odaa of the Frank Hurt Hornets (high school) and North Surrey Bears (community) are on the roster announced by Football BC Wednesday morning.
The 56-player group will be invited to a mini-camp in December, from which the team of 36 players will be named. Team BC will play in San Antonio as part of the US Army All American Bowl Week.
