The Moose Jaw Miller Express's losing streak was extended to three games after dropping a 9-1 decision on the road against the Sylvan Lake Gulls on Tuesday night.

Moose Jaw's lone run came in the top of the first inning. William Edwards hit a double to score Thomas Soto from third base.

Sylvan Lake would tie up the game in the bottom of the first before scoring eight unanswered runs.

A strong performance by the Gulls' pitching staff allowed only four Moose Jaw hits in the entire game.

Cochrane’s own Sarah Wozniewicz is heading to the pros! The 21-year-old forward was selected in the third round, fifth overall by the Ottawa Charge in the 2025 Professional Women’s Hockey League (PWHL) Draft, marking a major milestone in her impressive hockey journey.

From her early days on the ice in Cochrane then with the Airdrie Lightning, to becoming a standout player at Edge School and eventually the University of Wisconsin, Wozniewicz has shown relentless drive and passion for the game.

The bats cooled down a bit as the Swift Current 57's dropped their first of a six-game Alberta road swing.

They had 8 hits and 10 runners left on base in a 4-2 loss to Fort McMurray.

Adam Korte went 8 strong innings allowing 3 earned runs, striking out 8 and walking 3 in a losing cause.

Wilmer Henriquez went 3 for 5 with both RBIs for Swift Current.

Silas Hilton was 2 for 5 with a run scored.

The 57's get another crack at Fort McMurray tonight.

It was a busy night in the Western Canadian Baseball League. The Moose Jaw Miller Express fell to the Gulls in Sylvan Lake 1–9 yesterday. The Millers return to Gulls Stadium for game two of their series this evening at 7.

Last night, the Saskatoon Berries went 10–4 over the Regina Red Sox, and the Swift Current 57's fell 4–2 to Fort MacMurray.

Over to Rambler Park fastball, the Moose Jaw Giants will be in action this evening, taking on the Highway 22 Cowboys, and the Moose Jaw Canadians battle the Earl Grey Rockets in the late game.

In a tight game that went down to the wire, the Weyburn Beavers edged out the visiting Medicine Hat Mavericks 3-2 in walk-off fashion Tuesday night at Tom Laing Park. 

Ian Heck starred on both sides of the ball, turning in six dominant innings on the mound and later driving in the winning run with a sacrifice fly in the bottom of the ninth. Heck struck out 10 and allowed just one unearned run, holding the Mavericks in check and giving his team a chance to come back late. 

The Estevan Golden Eels had a successful and challenging weekend competing in back-to-back swim meets in Swift Current and Regina.

At the Swift Current meet, despite rainy weather, the team delivered strong performances across multiple events. Highlights included:

• Adalyn Christopherson won first place in the Girls 13-14 Meter Medley Relay with a time of 1:24.62 and second place in the 100 Meter Free Relay.

• Zalia Carlson placed second in the Girls 7-8 25 Meter Free and third in the 50 Meter Free.

World-class horse vaulting athlete Daniel Klotz-Dedora is preparing to depart for Austria ahead of his third appearance as a member of Team Canada at the FEI Junior Vaulting World Championship.

The 18-year-old received official word of his selection late last week from Equestrian Canada.

“We are excited to have you representing Canada again on the world stage and look forward to supporting you through the final preparations,” reads a letter from the organization.

Cochrane football players will suit up for three Alberta teams this summer following an extensive selection process by Football Alberta.

Cochrane Cobra Tyler Clazie has been named to the receiving corps of Alberta’s U18 squad for the Football Canada Cup. Fellow Cobra Evan Samoleski also made the team as a defensive back but is sidelined by injury.

Three other Cobras were in the running after advancing to the Top 100 camp held in Red Deer in May.

Veteran ball player Ryan Gerbrandt has represented the Altona Bisons on the diamond for years and recently, he also took his skills as a fire fighter up north to help people in need.

Looking back over the year so far, Gerbrandt says there are positives but also room to grow. "We've got a good group of core guys out and we're also getting younger every year, which is really exciting to see the program continue on. We feel that the team has allowed a few wins to slip from our grasp a little bit, but overall, we're starting to go in the right direction."
