Liam Hart and Ben Cleroux completed a high school hat trick recently when they finished first in Level 3 boys gymnastics at the high school B.C. championships in Prince George. The two battled to a draw for the top score on rings.

Fitting that International Women’s Day saw two special local women receive some special awards. Burnaby’s Zion Corrales Nelson and Christine Sinclair were among the athletes honoured by Sport B.C. on Wednesday for achievements in 2016.

It wasn’t a work of art, but for Aaron Mitchell and the St. Thomas More Collegiate Knights, Wednesday’s 71-53 win over the Wellington Wildcats was suitable for framing. While considered a battle of two closely ranked teams on opening day of the B.C.

The winning streak continues for St. Thomas More. The Burnaby private school’s wrestling program racked up its fifth consecutive title at the B.C.

The Simon Fraser University women’s basketball team is Alaska-bound, after qualifying for this week’s NCAA Div. 2 West Regional as the fifth seed.

Now that's how you start the day. The Byrne Creek Bulldogs launched the 2017 3-A senior boys basketball championships Wednesday morning with a solid 77-58 victory over the Duchess Park Condors at the Langley Events Centre.

It's now or never. The Grandview Steelers sit with their back to the wall with no margin for error entering tonight's (Wednesday) Game 4 of their best-of-seven Pacific Junior B Hockey League semifinal playoff series with the Delta Ice Hawks.
