Here are the Terrace Midget Reps moments after winning zone championships. The team beat Prince Rupert to qualify for provincials.

The Terrace Midget Rep Kermodes are on their way to Midget Tier 3 provincials after two decisive wins against Prince Rupert in the best-of-three northwest zone final.

The first game on Saturday, Feb. 22 saw them pull out all of the stops offensively to win 9-1.

And the onslaught didn’t let up later that day – with a 10-2 win at home, they are officially zone champs.

They’ll now head to 100 Mile House over spring break to compete against some of the best in the province – and coach Dave Jephson says he is expecting big things from the team.

Meanwhile, the Peewees looked poised to go to provincials following a season that saw them win every tournament they entered before taking the league championship.

But they fell to Vanderhoof on the road, losing 2-1 and 3-2.

“We ran into a perfect storm and lost,” said co-coach Kevin Marleau. “Such a disappointing end to what was an incredible season.”
