HOCKEY:
Lions Recapture Provincial Hockey Crown
Our Lions are again the kings of Quebec's college hockey world.

The Lions won their fourth provincial championship in five years with a convincing 4-2 win over the CEGEP André-Laurendeau Boomerang at the PEPS arena here on Saturday. With the win, St. Lawrence took the best three-out-of-five final series 3-1. The defending champion Boomerang, however, didn't go quietly.
