Only 11 days after a horrific mass shooting, Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Fla. has reason to celebrate.

That's because the school's hockey team won the Lightning High School Hockey League Tier 1 state title Sunday morning, knocking off the No. 1-seeded team to earn the championship.

The uplifting win comes less than two weeks after a former student opened fire on teachers and students at the school, killing 17 people.
