Weyburn Beavers infielder Caelen Dalman safely slid into second base, as the second baseman for the Sylvan Lake Gulls tried unsuccessfully to snag the ball. The play was part of the Beavers home game on Friday evening, when they were edged out 8-7 by the visitors, and then were trounced 16-0 on Saturday evening before heading to Regina to win by a score of 4-3 on Sunday.
Weyburn Iron Pigs improve to 6-1 record The Weyburn Iron Pigs trounced the Regina Rockies by the score of 12-0 on Friday night in Regina, and improved their record to 6-1 in the Qu’Appelle Valley Baseball League. The game was called
after the fifth inning by the mercy rule, as the differential was greater than 10 runs at that point. The Iron Pigs were to play the Regina Trappers on Monday night at home, but the game was called due to
the heavy thunderstorm. A number of players were able to do well at the plate. Brad Weisgerber had two hits and two runs with one RBI; Mike Onstad had three hits and three runs

and Grades 5-6 golfed on June 15 with 37 golfers. A few extra students joined up along the way to bring the total to 126 golfers. Prizes were donated by the Weyburn Golf and Country Club, Estevan Woodlawn Golf and Country Club and Canadian Tire. A golf bag and clubs came from Can-
adian Tire, golf shirts and range passes were from the Weyburn GCC, and a hat, head cover and golf balls were from Estevan. Butz made the draws for the prizes on Wednesday and were announced at the morning assembly on Monday. Lexi Hillstead was the winner of the golf bag and clubs.
