Coquitlam won its first Tier 1 championship title in seven years at the 28th Jack Crosby Memorial novice all-star lacrosse tournament in Burnaby.
The novice Adanacs avenged last year's championship final loss and their only defeat in preliminary round play, doubling the two-time defending champion Oakville, Ont., Hawks 10-5 in the title game at the Bill Copeland Sports Centre on Sunday.
Coquitlam MVP Dawson Brown scored six times, including his final tally scored while face-first on the floor in the third period, to lead the novice A's.
"It really (feels like a provincial championship)," said Brown after the game. "We just won this big, huge cup in front of a large crowd."
The Westshore Whalers defeated Delta 5-2 for the Tier 1 bronze.
Nanaimo defeated Kamloops 9-4 in Tier 2.
In Tier 3, Cowichan Valley defended its Crosby gold medal with a 9-6 victory over Victoria-Esquimalt.
