The Kelowna Owls look to be on top of their game heading into the B.C. junior girls basketball championship next week in Langley.
The Owls secured a spot at provincials after going 3-0 at the Okanagan championship last weekend in Vernon.
Dez Day scored 21 points in the championship game to lead the Owls to a 49-40 victory.
After a 69-21 win over Pen Hi in the opener, the Owls downed South Kamloops 54-44 in the semifinal. Kennedy Dickie paced the offence with 21 points, while Day added 15.
KSS will compete at provincials from March 2 to 5, where Owls' coach Kim Whelpton said there will be no clearcut favourite.
"No front runner this year," said Whelpton. " The top 10 to 12 teams can all make a push for the title. We need to put four good games together to win which is very possible for our group."
The Owls, ranked third, will open provincials Wednesday against 14th-ranked Mt. Baker, while OKM (13) will play No. 4 St. Thomas More.
