By Stewart Burnett Northern News Services Local Journalism Initiative Rankin Inlet

The all-black squad from Salliq/Chester gave them a run for their money, but Rankin came out on top 2-1 in overtime to win the U15 Rock Cup Sunday, March 5. Five teams competed in the tournament, with another set of younger teams playing a fun cup among themselves. The U13 Rankin Rock team participated in the U15 tournament as well, giving those players a taste of higher competition and physicality.

Fitting for International Women’s Day, many of the stars of the weekend were women, including several dynamo girls on the winning Rankin team.
