Holy Cross Women Repeat as Jubilee Trophy Champions
Holy Cross Nutra Holdings secured their spot as the top senior women's team in the province Saturday afternoon, winning the Jubilee Trophy championship 1-0 over Feildians. Jane Pope had the lone marker for the defending champions, while Teri Murphy of Holy Cross received the Sherry Morrissey award as playoff MVP.
Holy Cross and Feildians had been ranked first and second throughout the regular season.
Holy Cross advanced following a 6-0 victory over Paradise Jubilee in Thursday's semi-finals, while Feildians needed extra time and a penalty shoot out to overcome challengers St. John's 3-2.
The victory is Holy Cross's ninth provincial title in a row. The team are also two-time defending national champions and will defend their national title in British Columbia in October.
