Several local athletes will compete in pivotal races and games on Friday at the Canada Summer Games in St. John's, Newfoundland.
Swift Current's Carter Tuplin and Rowan Reimer will occupy one-quarter of the men's 400-metre hurdles final, after finishing sixth and seventh overall in qualifying on Tuesday.
Goalie Kai Foster and assistant coach Steve Michaluk, both of Swift Current, will try and help keep Team Saskatchewan's perfect record intact as they face Alberta in the quarterfinals. Foster posted a 10-save shutout on Thursday against Newfoundland & Labrador in a 7-0 win, lifting Saskatchewan to a 4-0 pool play record.
Lucky Lake's Kash Meyers and Team Saskatchewan will continue their quest to repeat as Canada Games men's volleyball champions as they play Manitoba. Saskatchewan went 2-1 in pool play, with their lone loss to British Columbia on Thursday in five sets.
