PROVINCIAL CHAMPS!
Congratulations to Brooklyn Kraft and Hennessy MacKinnon of Kerrobert, as well as Sienna Kelly of Dodsland, and their team, the Macklin Lakers, on their U17 C Provincial Softball Championship! The provincial tournament, which took place in Macklin July 5-7, found six teams vying for the coveted gold medal. The Lakers went 3 and 1 through round-robin play, defeating Rosetown, Northeast, and Moosomin, but came up short to Kindersley. That earned them second overall and a berth to the semi-finals. Here, they came up against the Rosetown Angels, besting them a second time and putting them into the gold medal game! A back-and-forth match-up against the Northeast River Dogs had the girls needing a stellar at-bat and perfection in the field in the last inning, and that’s just what they did! With a final score of 13-8, the U17 Macklin Lakers are this year’s Softball Provincial Champions! (L-R): Sienna Kelly, Brooklyn Kraft, Hennessy MacKinnon
