Provincials Recap

From March 4โ€“7, our Senior Boys team traveled to Langley to compete at Provincials. Entering the tournament as the 15th seed, we opened against the #2 seed, Daaxiigan Sk'adaa Nee Thunderbirds. While it was a tough loss, it was an incredible learning experience for our group.

In Game 2, we faced the Southpointe Academy Titans (7 seed), followed by Game 3 against the Campbell River Christian Cougars (11 seed), where MCS earned a great win. We wrapped up the tournament against the Ebenezer Timbers (13 seed), finishing with a 1โ€“3 record and placing 14th out of 16 teams.

A standout performance came from Alex Ready, who, as a Grade 10, was named the 2nd highest scorer in 1A with 111 points and ranked 7th overall across all classifications (1Aโ€“4A). An impressive accomplishment and a testament to his hard work and skill.

Players of the Game (as selected by game officials):

Game 1 โ€“ Alex Ready

Game 2 โ€“ Sinmi Oyedeji

Game 3 โ€“ Joseph Girard

Game 4 โ€“ Aiden Ready

The experience as a whole was unforgettable. From team dinners to high-level competition, and the chance to meet athletes from across BCโ€”including getting to cheer on athletes from Fort St John in 4A.

One of the biggest highlights of the tournament was watching the incredible Cinderella run by Similkameen, who entered as the 10th seed and battled their way to win the 1A Senior Boys Provincial Championship. Their journey was inspiring and a great reminder of whatโ€™s possible.

Off the court, the team had even more opportunities to bond. Staying together in one house made for a memorable experience. The team enjoyed every moment whether it was arcade games, go-kart racing, or Nintendo battles.

Moments like these are what itโ€™s all about. As a small school in Northern BC, simply qualifying for Provincials is a major accomplishment. Geographic challenges limit our opportunities to compete against southern teams, especially during the winter basketball season when travel through mountain passes can be difficult and costly. Unlike many southern schools, we donโ€™t have the same ability to play games every week or weekend.

Thatโ€™s why we are incredibly proud of our players not just for their performance, but for how theyโ€™ve grown together as a team.

Thank you to everyone who supported and cheered us on throughout the season!

Last weekend, MCS hosted the Senior 1A Boys Basketball Zones and what unfolded was something our school community will never forget.

We entered the tournament a little battered. Alex Ready was playing through a bone chip injury to his right hand suffered during regionals. Seeded 4th, we opened against Northside and earned the win to advance to the semifinals.

Waiting for us was Cedars Christian the 1st seed and ranked 8th in the province. In one of the most exciting games of the tournament, our boys battled to a 57โ€“54 victory and advanced to the championship game.

In the final against LDSS, the intensity was high from start to finish. With just 20 seconds remaining, our only Grade 12 player, Chad Chaplin, went down โ€” later diagnosed with a partial tear of his Achilles. Despite the heartbreak, the boys fought until the final buzzer, falling just short 68โ€“72.

With one final opportunity to qualify for Provincials, we faced Chetwynd. Down a starter. Down our only senior. Facing a veteran team loaded with Grade 12s.

And our boys responded.

With four Grade 11s and three Grade 10s, they played with relentless effort and belief, earning a decisive 72โ€“56 victory to secure our first trip to Provincials in 14 years.

Thank you to all the supporters, player parents, and visiting teams who packed the gym and created an incredible atmosphere throughout the weekend.

A special thank you to: The girls basketball team and Crystal Crantz for leading the way with the concession. Mrs. Keber for preparing an outstanding banquet meal. Pastor David Hildebrand of Creekside Fellowship Church for sharing the gospel and praying for all the teams. And of course to Telford Burrell and Justin Ready for their tireless coaching, organization, and commitment to these young men.

It truly takes a community.

We also want to recognize the Tumbler Ridge Kodiaks for competing with strength in the face of adversity and tragedy. These young athletes showed tremendous character, holding their heads high all weekend.

They are the real stars of this tournament. Our only wish is that we were traveling to Provincials together.

Today we celebrated with a pep rally as we prepare to send our boys to Langley. They carry with them not just wins and awards, but the pride of an entire school and community. Enjoy this video highlighting some moments from the last few seasons.

The MCS Rams are headed to the Championship Game against the LDSS Lakers today at 10:45 AM. The boys are playing for the 1A Senior Boys Zones title and a spot at Provincials โ€” and theyโ€™ve earned it.

After an intense semifinal battle, the Rams (4 seed) knocked off Cedars (1 seed) to punch their ticket to the final. Huge thank you to Ms. Molly Short for capturing the incredible closing moments of that win.

Letโ€™s bring the energy and support the boys as they compete for the championship. Go Rams!

MCS grieves alongside Tumbler Ridge Secondary School and all of the students, staff, and families affected. We pray that God draws near to them and surrounds them with comfort and peace during this difficult time.

The TRSS Kodiaks hold a special place in our hearts. Over the years, we have shared a close bond travelling together, cheering one another on, and building lasting memories. Just last weekend, we attended regional qualifiers together, where Tumbler Ridge stayed and led our cheering section in chants and encouragement.

Those moments of unity and friendship remain at the forefront of our minds.

โ€œGod is near to the brokenhearted.โ€ โ€“ Psalm 34:18

With love and support,
MCS Rams
