Day 2 Concludes at Junior Provincial Championships
Kleiter & Thevenot Among Leaders
Just when you thought the Saskatoon Sutherland staff & volunteer committee couldn’t do things much better than last year, they sure blew it out of the park once again for the 2019-2020 Junior Provincial Championships.
The atmosphere, set-up & competition here in Saskatoon these first two days is certainly something quite special to be apart of. The new 8-team round robin format & upgraded on-ice seating are two of among-st the many fantastic additions of what was brought to the club for this years action.
As for the standings goes, two familiar faces in Rylan Kleiter & Nathen Pomedli sit atop the men’s standings at 3-0 after Draw 6. Kleiter is last years Junior Champion, while Pomedli took home the 2019 U18 Championship, will both hit the ice tomorrow evening during Draw 9 at 7:30 p.m.! On the ladies side, two teams see themselves leading the way after Draw 5 concluded earlier this afternoon. Where Ashley Thevenot & Krystal Englot have both earned their teams a 2-0 record, which they won’t face each-other until Draw 10 on Monday at 8:30 a.m.!
With the new round robin format hitting the ice for the first time in Junior Play, no team is out of the picture yet, with a ton of teams locked in at 1-1 (Women’s) & 1-2 (Men’s) records. A long week ahead can see things turn around very quickly!
