On the weekend of July 27 to 29, the Canora Reds peewee baseball team competed in the provincial peewee baseball championship tournament in Moosomin, said Jennifer Sleeva, team representative.
The team was made up of players from Canora, Sturgis, Norquay, and Invermay.
The tournament included 10 teams, with five teams playing in each pool in a round robin format.
The Canora Reds played Muenster in the team’s first game on July 27 and came out victorious. That was followed immediately by a tilt against the host Moosomin squad, which resulted in a loss for Canora.
On July 28 the Reds lost their first game against a team from Estevan. The final round robin game resulted in a victory over the Saskatoon Blue Jays, said Sleeva.
“Canora finished with a record of two wins and two losses, which was an improvement from last year's record at provincials,” she said. “The players had a hot, yet fun weekend.”
Team members really appreciated the efforts of coaches Graham Lamb and Kelly McTavish for giving up so much of their time and summer to coach and teach all the players, Sleeva concluded.
The players on the team were: Lucas Latham, Nate Wolos, Porter Wolkowski, Logan Wolkowski, Ty Sleeva and Hunter Lamb of Canora; Carson Ebert and Keegan Dyck of Norquay; Xage Miraflor and Kimmuel Albarracin of Sturgis, and Nathaniel Minhinnick of Invermay.
