A West Shore squad has reason to celebrate and some new hardware to show off.

The Juan de Fuca A1 peewee team recently won gold at the box lacrosse provincials in Fort St. John with goalie Grayson Manning, named MVP for the entire tournament.

Three members of the team, Luca Pivetta, Carter Quested and Oliver Josephson, are also preparing to head off to Ontario at the beginning of August to compete for Team B.C. in Nationals.

A number of local athletes have qualified to this tournament in both field and box lacrosse, watch the Gazette in the coming weeks for more coverage.
