Just call her Super Seina: Over five seasons, Trinity Western’s Kashima has perfected the gift of giving

Varsity Letters’ Top 10 Performances of the Week: Notre Dame QB Clarke wills his Jugglers to dramatic win

LANGLEY — It was quite a week for marquee teams from AAA’s Western Conference. Two games — Notre Dame vs. New Westminster, Vancouver College vs. South Delta — produced some amazing results and equally amazing individual performances. Once again, it’s time to honour Varsity Letter’s Top 10 Performances of the Week from B.C. High School Football:

Doing a double take? Yes, that is Oak Bay's resident basketball star Diego Maffia, this year the starting setter for the Barbers' Top 10 AAA volleyball team, and the leading scorer on the Bays varsity soccer team.

A Sunday read: Oak Bay’s star multi-sport student-athlete Diego Maffia shares a high school resume strikingly similar to you know who!

VICTORIA — He’s the reigning Vancouver Island AAA MVP in one sport. In another, at it’s 2017 B.C. AAA championship tournament, he was the event’s second-leading scorer. And finally, in the sport of basketball, the one he calls his speciality, he is easily among a handful of the best long-range shooters our province has seen in the […]
