The Huron Lakers novice boys’ basketball team won a Division 8 bronze medal at the Ontario Basketball Association Provincial Championships in London on April 8.
Along the way, the eighth-seeded Lakers knocked off top-seed Markham after scoring nine straight points to win 25-23 on a buzzer-beater, and then up-ended #3 seed Durham to take the bronze medal.
By following up last year’s Division 10 bronze, they became the first Lakers boys’ team to win back-to-back medals at the OBAs. The team is made up of players in Grade 3 and 4.
