After cracking the top 10 last year, the Burnaby South Rebels are aiming higher in 2019 and judging by the rankings for the 2019 B.C. Junior Boys Basketball Provincial Invitational Tournament the Rebels are considered the team to beat, earning the No. 1 seed among the 32 entrants.

The 50th edition of the tournament gets underway on Saturday, February 23 with 32 teams hitting the hardwood at Langley Events Centre for four days and 80 games of basketball action.

The tournament will conclude on Tuesday, February 26 at 7 p.m. with the championship final on the LEC South Court.

Of course, 31 other teams have other intentions than simply conceding the title to the Rebels.

The Vancouver College Fighting Irish (who finished in third place in 2018), Yale Lions and St. Patrick Celtics round out to the top four.

The defending champion St. George’s Saints – who defeated the Lord Tweedsmuir Panthers xx-xx in the final – are back in the draw at No. 11 while the Panthers come in seeded 23rd.
