"The team is very excited to be attending their second consecutive OFSAA Championship," Balmer said. "After last year losing 6 seniors our team was able to refocus and get the job done."


Julia Upcott and Ozegho Aliu (2) scored for Vista as Melina Zsargo earned the clean sheet.


"Our team is very young, majority of our starting lineup will be back next year." Balmer said.


The Vortex have an 11-0-1 regular season record over the past two springs. Vista has nine starters in grades 9-10 and 11.


"We are very lucky to have talented and capable young players that are looking to make OFSAA a habit. Winning our first AA SWOSSAA Championship in school history is a great feeling and something that we look forward to trying to defend next year." Balmer told Powerplay Sports.


His team opens pool play Thurday at noon against Whitby's Anderson CVI. They'll then square off against Bishop Alexander Carter Catholic Secondary out of Hanmer, Ontario in their second game at 3pm.


"Our job is not done and we are very much looking forward to the opportunity to challenge the best teams in Ontario." Balmer said.

This is why...

Powerplay Sports was born while on a trip to Italy in the summer of 2018. Walking through a charming pedestrian underpass reminded me of being in the tunnel at the University of Michigan in the early part of my career. That feeling led to thoughts of Windsor Lancers football camp opening in three weeks and all of the fall sports that weren't going to be covered because of cuts to local sports coverage by legacy media. 

​

With the support of a loving wife and family, I decided to create Powerplay Sports as a passion project.  

​​​​

I've come across some great people who have helped capture the essence of our community throughout the years like Tony Techko, Tony Doucette, Scott Scantlebury, Dom Papa, Steve Bell, Will Hill, Jim Parker and Mary Caton to name a few. 

​

Please spread the word and follow along here or on social media so we can continue having the priviledge of highlighting our athletes, our community.
