Beavers open mini-road trip with loss in Medicine Hat

Errors would be the key factor for the Weyburn Beavers Tuesday night. Two in the second inning would be crucial for the Medicine Hat Mavericks, as they capitalized on every mistake en route to a 19-6 win over the visiting Beavers.  

Weyburn starter Ian Heck had a rough outing on the mound, giving up 11 runs, only five earned, over 4 1/3 innings. The defence would finish the game charged with eight errors, leading to the gap between runs allowed and earned runs.

"We're made up of girls from our two Winkler teams," head coach Dan Giesbrecht explains. "We have tryouts for provincials for those girls that want to try out. We pick our team, then we practice sometimes during the season, and we entered one tournament in Steinbach. After our league playdowns are done, we focus and we enter the provincials."
