Tyler Verde grew up as a kid dribbling and shooting in the Prince Rupert school gym under a banner honouring the 1964 Prince Rupert Rainmakers, considered still the most unlikely team to win the B.C. boys’ high school basketball championship.

It was his beacon, his guiding light.On the 60th anniversary of that championship, Verde is hanging a championship banner of his own in a gym for another upstart team that won the B.C. title after the head coach guided the Spectrum Thunder to its first Quad-A boys’ provincial basketball championship on the weekend before a capacity crowd of 5,000 at the Langley Events Centre.

“It was unreal. My voice is gone. We grinded it out. A lot of hard work has paid off. I am proud of the boys,” said Verde. “It feels surreal. There are so many great players on that MVP trophy and it’s an honour,” said Felt, an outstanding two-way six-foot-eight forward.
