The Burnaby South Rebels are on their way to not just a second consecutive perfect season but a perfect high school career.
The Grade 9 Rebel boys' basketball team won its second straight high school provincial basketball banner this weekend, winning the juvenile boys' banner 56-48 over host Kitsilano on Saturday.
Vince Sunga was named the player of the game for South in the banner final.
South carried a 65-game consecutive winning streak into the tournament and chalked up four more victories en route to the gold medal and matching plaque to go with last season's Grade 8 provincial championship title.
Player of the game Jusef Sehic led the Rebels into the provincial final following a 77-62 win over St. George's in the semifinal on Friday.
South opened with big wins over the Lake Trail Lakers and W.J. Mouat earlier in the competition. Vicente Balitaan and Sunga were named players of the game in the team's first two outings.
The current Burnaby South senior boys' team also won the juvenile provincials in 2012. Jermaine Haley and Nick Irvine, in 2009, were both named tournament MVPs for South at the Grade 9 championships.
