The DVSS Dynos Junior Varsity basketball team made history on Saturday night winning the Zone Championship.
The Dynos hosted the 1A-2A South Central Zone Championship on Saturday, March 10 and came out strong.
In their first game, the Dynos matched up against the Hugh Sutherland Kodiaks from Carstairs, and never looked back, besting the Kodiaks, 92-41.
This set them up for the final versus St. Joseph’s Collegiate of Brooks. The Dynos cruised to a 58-28 win.
This was a historic moment as Coach Jeff Messom says this is the first Junior Varsity Girls Zone Championship for the school in its 43 years.
The team has been excelling through the final stretch of the season.
“The girls have been playing some of their best basketball in the last month. Going into zones we had not lost a game since February 1, and had with the Zone victory, won eight in a row,” said Messom. “The girls play really hard, and do an excellent job of moving the ball, and sharing the ball, and playing team basketball.”
This positions the school for continued success.
“Next year all of these girls will be moving up to the senior team, and it looks to be an exciting future for our DVSS Girls basketball team in the next couple years,” said Messom.
