Hats off and three big cheers for recent high
school sports teams championship victories.
The Lockerby Vikings have been the big
winners of late.
Last week, the school won the Sudbury
District Secondary School's Athletic Association (SDSSAA)
junior boys city soccer title with a convincing 8-2 thrashing
of the St. Charles Cardinals. Angus Morris and James Carpino
both scored two goals for Lockerby in the big win.
Then, the Vikings won the senior boys A
football championship with a 28-12 victory over the College
Notre Dame Alouettes.
Lockerby runningback Niel Petran scored two
touchdowns for the Vikings.
The school has no doubt been left in a
euphoric state with the recent championships. The senior
football title is the first Lockerby has won since 1979.
The Vikings will now go play in the Northern
Ontario Secondary School's Athletics (NOSSA) Championship
Finals against the Sir James Dunn Trojans in Sault Ste. Marie
this Saturday, Nov. 6.
The Lasalle Lancers won the boys senior B
football championship last week as well, with a 36-7 win over
the LoEllen Park Knights.
The College Notre Dame Alouettes won the
SDSSAA girl's flag football championship with a 10-0 win over
the Lasalle Lancers last week.
Alouettes' player Renee Borkovich had a
tremendous game, scoring a touchdown and kicking a field goal
in the championship victory.
