 The Swift Current Ardens captured the bronze medal for the second year in a row at SHSAA 3A girls soccer.  Congrats to the Ardens and their coaches Dale Perry, Steven Mah, Daunean Dash-Rewcastle and manager Ruth Weiner!  The 8 team tournament was held in Prince Albert this year.  The Ardens started the tourney with a 3-1 win over Regina Campbell.  This put them in the semifinal versus Saskatoon Centennial who won provincials last year.  The Ardens put up a great effort but fell just short losing 2-1.  Centennial went on to win gold again.  The Ardens then battled for the bronze against Regina O’Neill.  They got the thrilling 2-1 overtime victory to get the medal. 

                The Herbert Laurels took part in 1A boys provincial soccer for the first time.  The rookie Laurel team travelled to Middle Lake.  They lost both games 11-0 vs Stobart and 7-1 versus Muenster.  Thanks to the Laurels and their coach Brian Forsyth – they gained valuable experience!

                Both Southwest football teams were successful on October 29 and will now advance to the provincial semifinals.  In 2A 9 man action, the Maple Creek Redmen travelled to Melville.  The Redmen came away with a 41-12 win and will now host Clavet on Saturday, November 5.  In 3A 12 man football, the Swift Current Colts hosted Yorkton Regional and won by a score of 21-7.  The Colts will now travel to Moose Jaw on November 5 and take on Peacock in the league final.  Good luck to both teams!
