The Vancouver College Fighting Irish had a stunning victory over Port Coquitlam's Terry Fox Ravens on Saturday, clinching the AAA high school provincial title for the first time since 1994.

The Irish gave up a touchdown early in the game only to bounce back and tie the game in the waning moments of the first quarter. They took the lead early in the second, holding onto it for the rest of the game. 

VC's offense continued to add points to the scoreboard in the second and third quarters and their defense held the Ravens off besides a touchdown in final moments of the fourth, for a final score of 27-15 in favour of the Irish.

Running back/defensive back Adam Konar was named MVP of the game, after collecting three touchdowns and two interceptions for the Irish. Vancouver College defensive lineman Christian Covington and Ravens quarterback Cam Canalas were named defensive and offensive Players of the Year, respectively.
