The Fighting Angels Among Top in BC

The LFA/VC Tennis Team returns from hiatus to finish 4th at BC Provincials

AUTHOR: UDHAY SOKHI

The LFA/VC tennis team displayed mettle, determination, and exceptional ability during their amazing season. After two years of high school tennis being on hiatus, the Fighting Angels battled hard and earned a well-deserved 4th place in the BC Provinical Championships.

The Fighting Angels started the season by confronting the St. George's/Crofton powerhouse team and successfully defeating Notre Dame. During playoff season, the team dominated the court against West Vancouver Secondary and Lord Byng, securing a spot in the Provincial tournament.

Provincial Championships were held in Victoria for the first time in many years, where the team got to relax and explore the city in their free time. The tournament started with easily defeating Gleneagle and fighting hard against Pinetree. Oak Bay was no match for the team's quick and fast-paced balls, leading the team to fight Sentinel for the Bronze Medal. Although the Fighting Angels were defeated, all players can hold their heads up high as they finished strong and ranked a well-earned 4th place in the province.

The LFA team is incredibly grateful to Coach Pat Macken and Senora Espinel for their constant encouragement and guidance. A special thank you also goes out to team leaders

Lucie-Marie Fabre, Meghan Allaye-Chan, and Benjamin Dee for their leadership, and all players for their eagerness during the tennis season.

Congratulations to the Fighting Angels for such a glorious return to the tennis season and for putting together such a strong showing at Provincials. The future looks incredibly bright for LFA/VC Tennis.
