Undefeated in tourney play, the Novice Warriors lacrosse team required a comeback to score gold in a Burnaby tournament.

The Peninsula Warriors Novice Intermediate team won the Tier 3 gold medal at the 26th annual Jack Crosby Novice All Star Lacrosse Tournament.

The tournament featured 20 teams from around BC and as far away as Ontario. The teams were divided into three tiers.

The Warriors went undefeated (5-0-1) to claim the Tier 3 gold with a thrilling 14-9 victory over their Island rivals, Saanich Tigers.

The gold medal game saw the Warriors erase a 7-5 Saanich lead midway through the game with nine unanswered goals to pull away.
