A promising start to the winter season in High school court sports.

The Beaver Brae junior boys basketball team was the runner-up at a tournament held this past weekend in Fort Frances.

The Broncos finished with a 3-1 record with wins over Dryden, Fort Frances and Churchill Collegiate from Thunder Bay.

Russell Guinto from Beaver Brae also won the free throw contest sinking 9 three-pointers in a minute.

Meanwhile the Thomas Aquinas junior girls were the runners up on the consolation side of a volleyball tournament in Thunder Bay.

The Saints were upended by St. Ignatius two sets to one.
