The Lethbridge Collegiate Institute Clippers volleyball team took home the 4A provincial title Saturday (Nov 23) with a win over Lindsay Thurber.
The No. 3 seed going into the weekend, LCI took on Salisbury Composite in pool play to kick things off Thursday, and emerged with a three-set win.
LCI then fell to Thurber in three sets, and bounced back to defeat William Aberhart later in the day, in a match that also went the full three sets.
On Friday, LCI battled Western Canada in the quarterfinal, and emerged with the victory.
That set up a semifinal showdown with Aberhart, as the Clippers once again took the win.
LCI then went on to top Thurber in the championship match. Salisbury took the bronze with a victory over Aberhart.
The Rams won Thursday's opening match against Jasper Place, defeated Strathcona in the next match and then earned a victory over Charles Spencer.
In the playoffs, LCI fell to All Saints in the quarterfinal, then dropped matches against Paul Kane and Catholic Central.
Thurber went on to win the gold with a win in the championship game over Aberhart, while Jasper Place took bronze.
