PORT COQUITLAM — The Terry Fox Ravens are B.C.’s best.

The Ravens nailed down B.C. basketball supremacy Saturday after posting a 75-74 come-from-behind win over Walnut Grove.

Guard Jesse Crookes hit the game winner with less than four seconds left to secure the championship, capping a furious 12-2 fourth quarter run.

Fox centre Ryan Sclater led the Ravens with 17 points and 11 rebounds in the contest, and would go on to be named the tournament MVP. Point guard Daniel Collins added 13 points, while power forward Trevor Casey dropped 10.

The Ravens got to the big dance by way of earlier victories over Oak Bay (73-52), Pitt Meadows (66-30) and White Rock Christian Academy (73-64).

More to come.
