At the Fraser Valley championships a few weeks earlier, the Langley Christian Lightning failed to make the semifinals, and placed fifth overall. This was despite being ranked second heading in.
While the junior girls volleyball atoned for that disappointment, by rallying to finish in fourth place at the provincial championships.
The team was competing at provincials in Delta last week (Nov. 27 and 28).
Sarah Brownlee was a first team all-star while Corina Beimers was named to the second team for Langley Christian.
The Lightning went 1-2 in pool play, beating Carson Graham and Little Flower Academy 2-0 but falling 2-0 to Timberline.
But the team qualified for the championship round, defeating Seaton and Earl Marriott in the round of 16 and the quarter-finals, before losing to MEI in the semifinals and St. Thomas More in the bronze medal match.
