Kamloops Bull-Dawgs hosted the first Division 2 tournament of the 2012-13 season on October 27/28 at the Tournament Capital Centre in Kamloops. Four teams attended the tournament: Victoria, Kamloops Bull-Dawgs, Okanagan Thunder, and the Gold Rush (BC Juniors). Last year's Champions Victoria has lost two key players Jessica and Jon Vliegenthart this season. However, with a couple of young upcoming athletes, they showed that they are still one of the best teams in the league by winning all four games on the weekend. It was great to see all the teams had some young/new talented athletes contributng in the games.
