The Abbotsford Panthers senior boys soccer team is the Fraser Valley champions.
The team earned the banner with a 2-0 win over the L.A. Matheson Mustangs in South Surrey earlier today.
Marley Edwards opened the scoring early for the Panthers, but shortly thereafter a red card saw the team down to just 10 men on the pitch.
Harjen Sidhu then connected with a header off a corner kick before the first half was over to make it a 2-0 game.
The second half saw the Panthers continue to play with just 10 men, but hang on for the 2-0 win.
