Morrison Braves – Lacrosse

MOA Narrative

The Morrison Braves lacrosse team of Kitamaat prepared to make their voyage down the Kitimat River to face off against the Terrace Lumberjacks for one last battle.  The winner to be crowned West Coast Lacrosse Champions of 1967.  The boys knew that blood and sweat would be shed as all the work they had put in throughout the season came down to these sixty minutes.

The referee blows his whistle and the game begins.  Back and fourth the men fight like gladiators, battling for every possession of the ball.  Heading into the last minute of the game the score is tied up 7 – 7.  With the clock ticking down, the Braves make one final push.  Wilfred Wilson picks up the ball and fires it down the field to Tim Starr who nimbly steps around a defender and with a forceful stroke puts the ball in the back of the Lumberjack’s net.  With that the home crowd silences as the Morrison Braves take the field to celebrate their championship.  Well done boys!
