Good work by Kelly Road...its too bad they fell slightly short in their opening game...i think they had an opportunity to make some noise at one of BC's premier sporting events.

Considering the quality of teams in this tournament a 9th place finish would have to be considered a success.

Congrats to Kelly Road on their season thus far.
