Field Hockey Team Strikes Gold!   The Shawnigan Senior Girls
Field Hockey squad wrote history over the mid-term break and it
had nothing to do with class work. The 21 player squad is the
first Shawnigan field hockey team to bring home the elusive blue
banner as AA Provincial Champions.  "I am really proud of our
girls because I feel that they really deserve this big win since
they worked so hard together for over 15 months and became such
a powerful group of young, inspired and committed athletes,"
stated Director of Field Hockey and coach Benjamin Koepp.  After
confidently securing a provincial berth as Island Champions, the
Shawnigan squad also snagged the #1 seed for the Provincial
championships based on their undefeated 24-3-1 season record.
The girls left no doubt to their top ranking by marching through
pool play, quarter finals and semi-finals with a total tally of
29 goals and conceding only 1 against.  As anticipated the squad
faced off against AA rivals and defending 2010 champions
Collingwood. Havi
