The Terry Fox Ravens are headed to the AAA high school football provincial championship.
In a stunning come-from-behind victory that saw Fox pickup crucial points in the final minutes of the game, the Port Coquitlam team defeated South Delta 22-21 in the semifinal match.
The win sets the stage for a meeting against Notre Dame secondary at B.C. Place Stadium this Saturday at 7 p.m.
As usual, Jeremie Kankolongo played a major factor in the Raven’s win.
With just a minute and a half left on the clock, the Grade 12 running back scored a touchdown to bring his team to within one on the scoreboard. On the next play, Kankolongo ran the ball in again to take the 22-21 lead, which held until the clock ran out.
A trip to the championship finals marks an impressive year for the Ravens.
After a bumpy start in exhibition the club went 7-0 during the regular season and defeated Tri-City rivals the Centennial Centaurs 47-7 in the playoff quarterfinal.
Notre Dame are in the finals after defeating New Westminster secondary 20-14 last week.
