91原创 Christian School Lightning took gold at the 91原创 District volleyball championships, defeating 91原创 Fundamental Titans during the gold medal Grade 8 game at the 91原创 Events Centre on Tuesday (Oct.29) .
Lightning got off to a shaky start, finding the net with their serves instead of the other side several times before they settled down and won, three sets to none.
鈥淲e didn鈥檛 start off too well at all,鈥 Lightning head coach Carol Hofer told the 91原创 Advance Times.
鈥淲e missed a lot of serves, and that鈥檚 not normal for us.鈥
Normal was another win for LCS, which has a history of victories in volleyball.
鈥淲e have a pretty strong tradition of success,鈥 Hofer said.
鈥淎nd these boys are continuing that tradition.鈥
Top-ranked LCS was undefeated through eight games this year, while 91原创 Fundamental, with seven wins and one loss, ranked second.
Both the Lightning and Titans advance to the Fraser Valley championships later this month.
Walnut Grove took bronze.
In the girls鈥 tournament, a near-identical outcome with 91原创 Christian School taking gold, 91原创 Fundamental silver and Walnut Grove bronze.
It was very familiar territory for the LCS Grade 8 girls program, which was undefeated through the regular season and has won nine of the past 10 District titles (They took second place in 2017).
