It has been an epic climb back for club
Vic West ended a 34-year drought while Lakehill FC’s will continue into a 68th year. The Wests defeated Lakehill on penalties in a dramatic Saturday evening before a large gallery at Starlight Stadium, to lift the Jackson Cup for the first time since 1989 despite being down to 10 players for the entirety of the second half. Regulation time ended 2-2 before Vic West won the kicks 5-4 from the spot.
It has been an epic climb back for a club that won six B.C. and four Canadian championships in the 1970s and 1980s only to fall to the depths in the Fourth Division and having to win three promotions since 2009 just to get back to the First Division. “Nobody expected this to happen but I treated it like I was going into any other game,” said the cool and composed Garner, headed next season to the UBC Thunderbirds in U Sports.
