Local 4-H members shine
ADELLE ELLIS
Times Reporter
4-H members from across Wheatland
County gathered on March 11 to de-
liver speeches and presentations at the
Wheatland District 4-H speak-offs.
District speak-offs are an advanced
opportunity for each 4-H clubs Top 2
speakers in each level (junior, inter-
mediate and senior) to deliver their
speeches or presentations to a whole
new set of judges alongside other
speakers who have advanced to the
second speaking level.
Its amazing to see the kids speak
when theyre nine years old compared
to when theyre 17. Their confidence
level grows. Even how they can write
a speech, there is more to it than just
standing in the front of a room and
saying it, they have to do research and
come up with something to speak on,
said Sherry Malmberg, one of the par-
ents who helped organize the event.
4-H members are required to perform
at least one communications activity
every year, usually a formal speech or
presentation. However, some seniors
may also choose to emcee an event or
host a workshop as their communica-
tions activity.
This year there were a variety of top-
ics the audience and judges heard the
youth speak about, from chickens to
how to annoy your parents, farm safety
to media misconceptions, and the price
of intelligence to green apples (fen-
tanyl).
Most audience members went away
from the day having learned something
they didnt know before.
Some of the presentations are teach-
ing you a new skill. You always learn
something from either the kids speech-
es or presentations. Its interesting to
see their personalities come out as
well, said Malmberg, who added that
its interesting to see the children grow

tour they recently took part in.
The Strathmore Childrens Choirs Finale Choir,
comprised of children in Grade 7 and older, re-
cently put on several mini-concerts in Lethbridge
schools while also participating in a workshop
that taught new singing skills to help them sing
better together.
We picked songs we knew when we were kids
so [the audience] knew them and sang along. It
was fun and very interactive, said choir member
Kianna Doig, who has been singing in the choir
since it first started nine years ago. The work-
shops are a lot of fun and are also very beneficial.
Its different hearing stuff from a clinician rather
than just your choir instructor.
The workshop was hosted by David Mikuliak,
a teacher of drama, choir and musical theatre at
Chinook High School in Lethbridge.
The Strathmore Childrens Choir (SCC) has been
teaching aspiring musicians how to sing together
for nine years. The SCC started with 10 students of
various ages in a single choir. Through the years,
it has grown to include three separate choirs di-
vided into age groups. The oldest level choir, Fi-
nale Choir, is comprised of 26 female singers in
Grade 7 and up.
The choirs have two concerts yearly: a Christ-
mas concert and a spring concert. The choirs
also compete in several singing festivals includ-
ing Choralfest in both Calgary and Edmonton, the
Drumheller and District Music Festival, and with
the Youth Singers of Calgary.
School choirs gear up for competition

Several schools in Strathmore have a proud his-
tory when it comes to the performing arts, espe-
cially when looking at choir performances at the
Drumheller and District Music Festival.
Indeed, three schools in Strathmore walked
away from the adjudicated festival last year af-
ter having won all four available school music
awards.
The schools in Strathmore hope this year will
be no different. The 87th Drumheller and District
Music Festival will be taking place on March 20
to 31.
Music festivals provide a beautiful perfor-
mance venue and adjudication by a choral ex-
pert, said Carolyn Steeves, music specialist with
cole Brentwood Elementary School. The cho-
risters gain experience and confidence from the
experience along with the excitement of the per-
formance. The choirs use these performance op-
portunities to goal set.
Last year, cole Brentwood Elementary School
won the T.E. Keele Trophy for the highest mark
in school chorus Grades 2 and 3, as well as the G.
Fred Anderson Memorial Plaque for the highest
mark in school chorus Grades 4 to 6.
This year, cole Brentwood Elementary School
senior and junior choirs will both perform four
selections, while the primary choir will perform
five. All three choirs will be accompanied by pia-
This year, the Finale Choir spent two full days in
Lethbridge putting on two concerts at two schools.
The choir sang on its own, and then worked with
choirs within the schools to prepare a few songs
which they sang together.
These things help us not only prepare for the
performances that are coming up and for Choral-
fest, which is an adjudicated performance, they
help us sing better as a choir. We learn techni-
cal aspects of singing and have a chance to really
blend as a group, said SCC director Loralee Lay-
cock, who founded the SCC.
In the past, the choirs have attended many fes-
tivals and adjudicated events. This year however,
the choir has taken a slightly different approach
regarding performances. The choirists are find-
ing it beneficial to instead have clinicians attend
rehearsals to work with them. Elaine Quilichini,
director of the Calgary Girls Choir, recently visited
the SCC to work with the young vocalists.
Ultimately our goal with all these kids is to in-
troduce them to music, make them feel like music
is fun, and help them see that performing is a way
for them to improve their singing, said Laycock.
I feel like music is so much more than just about
the technical aspect of singing. If we can instill
in them a love for what theyre doing then it will
stay with them all their lives. Thats my main goal
really, for them to all feel like when they leave
the choir, that music has touched their lives and
theyll continue to want to be involved in music in
some way.
Upcoming performances by SCC: Finale Choir
at the Calgary Choralfest March 16; Encore Choir
performing with the Youth Singers of Calgary on
April 8. At the end of the year, all choirs in the SCC
will put on a concert in Strathmore.
The Drumheller and Dis-
trict Music Festival is a
chance for school choirs
to gain experience per-
forming in front of an au-
dience and to be adjudi-
cated by a choral expert.

no, flute, viola and percussion, and the songs will
be sung in either one, two or three parts.
The choirs take a great deal of pride in their
performances and work hard to achieve excel-
lence. They always want to sing their best and
represent their choir and their school the very
best they can, said Steeves. They are thrilled
when they reach their goals and know they gave
it their all.
Crowther Memorial Junior High School (CMJHS)
has also done well in previous years at the Drum-
heller Festival, winning the Rotary Club Trophy
last year for the highest mark in family and com-
munity music.
Unfortunately, CMJHS will not be attending the
festival this year, as their choir is growing and
they are more focused on performing within the
school and in the community. In future, the school
hopes to once again attend the festival.
Last year the Strathmore High School Glee Choir
took home the W.R. Dean Memorial Trophy and
the DDMJA Scholarship for receiving the highest
mark in a school chorus. This year, 20 students in
the Glee Choir will be performing three songs at
the festival.
Its great for them to have the opportunity to
share what theyve been working on and to get
some feedback, said Deanne Bertsch, Glee Choir
director. She added that the feedback is helpful
for the young singers to help them grow. They
will be holding a concert in the upcoming months
where they will sing the same songs.

REMEMBERING OUR ROOTS ~ Marvin and Elaine Gill
JOHN GODSMAN
Times Contributor
Marvins paternal grandparents, Sophia and Em-
manuel Gill, homesteaded near Leader, Sask., while
his maternal grandparents, Carl and Elizabeth Brady
homesteaded near Lemsford, Sask.
Marvins parents, Herbert and Viola Gill, operated
the homestead farm near Leader when Marvin was
born, the youngest of two boys. Following Marvins
birth, the family moved to Medicine Hat, Alta., and be-
came long-distance farmers, travelling back and forth
between the city and the farm dur-
ing the summers.
Marvin attended school in Medi-
cine Hat through Grade 12, when
he moved to Calgary to attend the
University of Calgary. During the
summer months he returned to
Saskatchewan to assist his father
with the farming operations. Mar-
vin had an aptitude for music, and
started piano lessons at an early
age, but upon entering the University of Calgary, his
emphasis was on the flute and voice, and he graduated
with a B.Mus. in 1982. He later attended Olds College
to study agriculture, as farming was always close to
his heart.
Elaines grandparents, Joseph and Lydia Schmalz
and Caroline and Christoph Weiss, homesteaded near
Shellbrook, Sask. where she was born, the youngest
of five children. Her parents, Robert and Selma Weiss,
had sold their farm before she was born. She too
studied piano throughout her early years, also teach-
ing other students, while she was a student herself.
After graduating from high school, Elaine worked for
the Bank of Montreal for a year in Saskatoon before
moving to Edmonton to see what Alberta had to offer.
Jobs were plentiful in the mid-1970s, and she was soon
working for Canadas Department of National Defence,
and later the RCMP.
Maxime Bernier is Albertas champion against Trudeau
DEREK FILDEBRANDT
MLA Strathmore-Brooks
Many Albertans have May 2019 circled on their
calendars; our next provincial election and the first
opportunity to remove the NDP from power.
Beyond our NDP government however, Trudeaus
Liberals have also been inflicting damage on our
provincial economy.
Thankfully, 2019 will also feature a federal elec-
tion. During that election its important for Alber-
tans to have a credible and principled candidate
to support. I believe that Maxime Bernier who
is currently running for leader of the Conservative
Party of Canada is the best choice for Alberta.
While our province has struggled with high
unemployment rates and a lack of investor con-
fidence, Justin Trudeau has been out talking pub-
licly of the need to phase out Albertas oil and
gas industry.
Come invest in Alberta, we might shut you
down is, perhaps, the worst message Prime Minis-
ter Trudeau could be sending to the global invest-
ment community right now.
By contrast, Maxime Bernier supports our oil
and gas sector and the need for new pipelines. He
understands that it makes no sense for Quebec
his home province and other eastern Canadian
provinces, to continue purchasing oil from Middle
East dictators and tyrants. He wants new pipelines
so that eastern Canadians can buy Canadian oil,
supporting Canadian oil companies and Canadian
jobs.
While Justin Trudeau continues to see Alberta
as a cow to be milked even during this recession,
Maxime Bernier has committed to reform Canadas
Equalization program. This means that Alberta
could potentially keep billions of extra dollars each
year instead of being forced to send our money

Calgary locations, and in 2003 ac-
quired a musical instrument repair
business Calgary Musical Repair.
About 11 years later, Marvin
found the pull of farming to be
overwhelming, and as his family had already sold the
Saskatchewan homestead, it was time to look else-
where. In 1998, they purchased a quarter section at the
corner of Hwy 817 and Namaka Road, south of Strath-
more. Marvin, Elaine, Lynden, Elaines sister Lorraine
and her husband Glen Ellingson became partners in
the business they called Bumbleberry Orchards Ltd.
Originally envisioned as a hobby farm, because they
still had their music businesses, it soon took over their
lives. The first spring, they planted the entire orchard
from scratch over 20,000 raspberry canes, one acre
of strawberries, three acres of wild black cherries
(chokecherries), and 30,000 Saskatoon trees over 30
acres. Bumbleberry Orchards quickly became a popu-
lar U-pick, and customers returned every year. As the
yields grew, they sold fresh berries at farmers markets.
Around 2004 the Alberta government was attempt-
ing to implement an estate wine industry throughout
to other provinces. Keeping those dollars in our
province would help create jobs and opportunities.
While Justin Trudeau is running up $100 billion
in new debt debt that he intends to leave for our
children to pay for Maxime Bernier has signed a
written pledge to balance the budget within two
years of taking office. Further, he has committed to
set aside some money each year to begin repaying
the federal governments enormous debt.
Justin Trudeau is also bent upon imposing a new
federal carbon tax in tandem with Rachel Notleys.
Maxime has committed to eliminate Trudeaus car-
bon tax and to reduce our overall tax bill. Specifi-
cally, he will eliminate capital gains tax to encour-
age investment, reduce business income taxes to
create jobs, and significantly reduce personal in-
come taxes to leave more money in the pockets of
everyday Canadians.
Beyond rolling back over-taxation and over-
spending, Maxime understands the need to roll
back the regulatory state; that is, that the federal
government should not be in the business of do-
ing anything that individuals, free enterprise or the
provinces can do better. Government has no role
in protecting fully-grown adults from themselves.
What made the decision to support Maxime Ber-
nier easy for me is that hes not a Johnny come
lately in his values and principles. I first met Max
over a decade ago and he was saying the same
thing then as he is saying now. I often tell friends
Maxime might have a bit of an accent, but he
speaks Alberta common sense fluently.
As we get closer to the deadline for choosing
a new federal Conservative Party leader, I hope
youll join me in supporting Maxime Bernier the
Albertan from Quebec.

Standard Bighorns Club

ADELLE ELLIS
Times Reporter
The Standard Bighorns Club, one of
the oldest outdoors hunting clubs in
Alberta, held their 53rd annual supper
and meeting in Standard on March 4.
[It was] originally established when
a few local guys decided they would
get together later in the year after the
hunting season and create a social
event where they could hand out a few
awards to the members who shot the
biggest animals that year, said Jason
Gauthier, president of the club. We
still do the same thing but now we
have changed the focus towards kids
and promoting the hunting and the
outdoor sport with youth.
This years dinner had a much lower
attendance than that of recent years,
only around 15 people and five kids
showed up for the dinner. The low at-
tendance is attributed to both Strath-
more and Drumheller clubs scheduling
caught, or the gopher they exterminat-
ed the previous year.
Our main goal right now is to pro-
mote youth hunting, said Gauthier,
who added the club has been help-
ing to support kids who wish to go to
hunter training camps by paying for a
portion of the costs. Last year the club
sent two of the members kids to the
hunters training camp.
Served at this years dinner were
dishes created with moose, elk, deer
and even cougar.
Winners for the 2016 hunting season
included: largest bear (17 inches), Ja-
son Gauthier; biggest archery shot deer,
Jason Gauthier; largest mule deer (178
5/8), Tyler Laycock; largest white-tailed
deer (148 5/8), Pascal Bissonnette;
largest elk (304 2/8), Tim Christensen;
youth hunter award for white-tailed
buck, Lucas dArgent; youth female for
gopher, Rylen Bugusky.
The importance is just to keep up
traditions, the history of this club, one
of the oldest outdoor clubs in Alberta,
and to keep promoting new hunting to
keep youth in the sport, said Gauthier.
Each year the club enters a float in
the Standard Sports Day parade. They
have also worked with the Alberta
Hunter Education Association to make
a hunting simulator available for kids
to try out during the Sports Day festivi-
ties.
This is a tradition thats been passed
down over the years for many of these
kids. We also have some kids who dont
come from a hunting background that
want to learn about it, said Gauthier.
Anyone who is interested can join
the club. It is $30 for a single member-
ship or $40 for a family membership.
Call Jason Gauthier at 403-644-2955
or Perry Ellis at 403-644-3963 to join.

for the biggest harvested animals and

Flooding causing problems in Cheadle
SHARON MCLEAY
Times Contributor
Localized flooding in Cheadle is caus-
ing headaches for some of its residents.
Mike and Cathy Hayes appeared at
Wheatland County councils March 7
meeting to share details of how, in the
past 12 years, residents have been bat-
tling flooding in properties adjacent to
the hamlet of Cheadle development.
They said four houses were built in the
approved development when subse-
quent flooding problems began.
The Hayeses, under their business
of Wheatland Auction Services, in-
voiced the county for $11,400 to cover
lost property use and cleanup due to

not have to pay for the costs, when the
county and developers have a respon-
sibility to deal with the water manage-
ment issues.
The Hayeses said they felt victimized
by the county and developer, whom
they allege have not stepped up to fix
the ongoing flooding problems that oc-
curred after approval for the Cheadle
development. Currently there is an in-
vestigation into water matters in the
area by Alberta Environment.
We have been flooding. We are con-
tinuing to flood and we will continue to
flood unless someone takes ownership
and responsibility based on the scenes
I will prove to you, said Cathy Hayes.
The couple showed council photo-
graphs of flood damage, before and af-
ter development at Cheadle. The Hayes-
es said they approached the county
with their recent flooding problems and
offered staff permission to work on the

property; however, staff could not com-
ply because it was private property.
When the Hayeses tried to rectify the
problem themselves by installing two
new culverts, the county issued a stop
work order and referred the issue to Al-
berta Environment.
We had tried to take care of the
flooding ourselves, because the county
refused to help, said Cathy. We started
and were shut down.
She added that with the completion
of a second culvert, it might have dealt
with the problem. Freezing in the half-
finished project is again creating flood-
ing for the Hayeses and neighbouring
properties.
We arent worried about the water
flow in the summer time. It is the win-
ter water that no one wants to claim
that is causing the effect, said Mike
Hayes.
Cathy Hayes said that in 2016, a WID
representative stated to them that the
Cheadle development had increased
water flow.
County staff said legal advice was
necessary to determine county respon-
sibility and subsequent course of action
in the matter.
There is much information, many,
many dates and many things that have
occurred on this. I suggest that further
communication on this is not going to

Jim Laslo, Wheatland Countys general
manager of agriculture, community and
protective services.
County staff had met with the Hayes-
es, visited the flood site and discussed
ways to remediate circumstances relat-
ed to the watercourses, and deal with
an artesian well flow that wasnt men-
tioned on early engineering reports.
Recommendations included: council
does not accept responsibility for in-
voice forwarded by the Hayeses; con-
duct a legal review of all documents,
plans and photos of the master plan,
and determine councils responsibil-
ity for flooding and the artesian flow;
transfer funds for legal opinion from
Wheatland County operating reserve.
The area in question involves 58.02
acres, and professional engineering
documents were done in 2001, 2002
and 2008. The 2001-2002 study report
noted an existing drainage system that
connects with the major drainage sys-
tem connecting to the Hartell coulee.
Council agreed to consult legal advice
and bring back initial decisions on the
matter to the March 14 council meeting.
On March 28, from 4 to 7 p.m., a sec-
ond Cheadle Area Structure Plan open
house will be held at the Cheadle Hall,
and the draft master storm drainage
plan will be presented for public input.

adequacies identified in the Building
Canada Fund, specifically the scrutiny
over funds spent and no money for
smaller municipalities.
One thing that impacted us specifi-
cally is the Building Canada Fund ex-
cluded anything recreational, cultural
or anything to do with roads, she said.
When we had the discussion in 2015,
it was a major, major consideration
for us. If there is anything to learn in
a future rollout in a process such as
this, earmarking should not exclude
those things so important to smaller
municipalities. So if there is a message
to carry forward to (Alberta Infrastruc-
ture) Minister (Brian) Mason, it would
be that.
James Thackray, Town of Strathmore
chief administrative officer, said that
storm water and wastewater projects
would be a prime target for these mon-
ies, and Coun. Peterson suggested up-
grades to water treatment on the east
side of Strathmore as another project
that could benefit from funding.

Spartans off to provincials in the Hat
TYLER LOWEY
Times Reporter
The Strathmore High School Spartans senior girls
basketball squad cake-walked their way to the schools
second 3A South Central Zone championship at High-
wood High School last weekend.
We went into every game hoping to play our best
and we managed to come out with the win, and thats
all that matters, said Ffyona Gibson-Smith.
The Spartans dumped the Bert Church High School
Chargers 66-58 in the final in front of a loud, travelling
group of fans from Strathmore.
It was a pretty tight game early, they jumped out
to an early lead and we battled our way back and led
by 10 at halftime, said Spartans head coach Dion Ga-
landy. We maintained a 10 to 12 point lead the rest
of the way. All the pressure was on Bert Church. I just
kept reminding them, hurry, but dont rush. We kept
working hard and played with intensity.
For the Spartans, its the schools first 3A zone cham-
pionship since the 2013-2014 season.
In the semis, the Spartans sank the Springbank High
School Phoenix 55-25.
The Spartans were rewarded with a home game to
open zones, as they dumped the Bow Valley Bobcats
60-46 at Strathmore High School.
The Spartans entered the Alberta Schools Athletic
Association provincials last ranked as an honorable
mention an underdog, if you will.
The tourney kicked off March 16.
Last time Galandy took a crew to provincials, they
were knocked out of contention in the quarterfinals.
His message this time around was simple: We have
nothing to lose. The pressure is on everyone else,
which works in our favour. We are going to go in re-
laxed, play our games, because you never know what
might happen.
According to Gibson-Smith, the goal was to make it
to provincials.
Now that we have made it, our goal is to go out,
play hard and see what we can make out of it, said
Le May. At the end of the day, its about playing hard
and doing the best we can.

Entering provincials ranked 10th, the Spartans took
on the No. 7 ranked Strathcona Christian Academy Ea-
gles March 16. If they won their opening game, they
then battled the No. 2 ranked Monsignor McCoy High
School Colts March 17.
SPARTAN BOYS MISS OUT
On the guys side, The Canmore High School Cru-
saders dumped the Spartans in the opener 77-56, but
a late three-pointer from Jackson Howatt sunk the
Spartans provincial hopes for good.
Playing at home with two provincial berths up for
grabs, the Spartans were 30 seconds away from the
final.
Rebounding from their opening round loss to the
Crusaders, the Spartans eliminated the No. 10 ranked
Bert Church High School Chargers 77-69 on March 10.
The Spartans opened up the game with the three
ball in the second half, with big shots. Mackenzie Bain
knocked down four triples, finishing with 17 points,
and John Le May poured in one triple, to finish with
23 points. Caleb Funk finished his high school career
strong, recording 17 points in the consolation quar-
terfinals.
Funk was also a beast down low and brought the
Spartans within one, 85-84, with less than a 30 sec-
onds remaining against the Crusaders in the consola-
tion semifinals.
Needing to foul, the Spartans caught a lucky break
as the Crusaders clanked both of their free throws.
After grabbing the rebound, the Spartans fumbled the
ball up the court, evaporating valuable seconds from
the clock that they could have used to get a cleaner
look at the buzzer.
Thats the way these things go sometimes, said
Spartans head coach Matt Laslo. Sometimes they
dont go our way. It was a great season and we saved
our best basketball for zones and thats all I could
have asked from our guys.
Funk dumped in 15 points, Le May supplied 32 and
Mackenzie Bain added 12 in the loss.
The Brooks Composite High School Buffalos (No.
4) and the George McDougall High School Mustangs
(No. 3) clinched the two provincial berths.

Silver Sharks set
for provincial meet
TYLER LOWEY
Times Reporter
The Strathmore Silver Sharks Swim Club is
waist deep in another successful season, high-
lighted by three swimmers efforts reaching the
provincial championships, with an eye on the na-
tional pool.
Jessica Mantik, Madison Laycraft and Elle Sauve
are set for the Swim Alberta Spring Champion-
ships, running March 17 to 19 in Edmonton.
The Sharks are halfway through their season,
which kicked off in October and ends in July af-
ter another provincial meet.
These three swimmers are very dedicated and
work very hard, said Sharks head coach Jen
Mertz. They all have a great shot at advancing
to the western meet and maybe even nationals.
Laycraft, 15, is the longest tenured swimmer
out of the three, competing with the Sharks since
she was six years old.
A sprinter, Laycrafts best discipline is the back-
stroke, but she is continuing to explore and work
on the three other strokes.
Mantik is in her third season of competition
with the Sharks and her fourth overall. Also a
strong sprinter, Mantik will be competing in all
four disciplines in Edmonton.
She has made leaps and bounds of improve-
ments since she joined our program, said Mertz.
Nobody would be shocked if she turned in some
winning time this weekend. Both Madison and
Jessica have put in a lot of work outside of the
pool [with] dryland training as they try and pull
off some national qualifying times.
The Edmonton swim meet isnt like minor
hockey provincials. Advancing to westerns and
nationals all depends on qualifying times. With
time standards for each age group and race
length, the time of a swimmers race determines
whether or not he or she advances to the next
level. Times in the athletes heats still matter, as
they advance within the competition, earning
points towards medals and ribbons.
Sauve, 12, has leaned on her athletic prowess
to propel her in the pool. Away from the pool,
Sauve plays basketball, ringette and baseball;
shes open to any sport.
She is a really strong swimmer, said Mertz.
Her strong arms and legs really help her excel
at the butterfly and thats directly related to her
athletic ability from all the different sports she
plays.
During the Southern Alberta Provincials Feb.
25-26 at the Repsol Sport Centre in Calgary,
Sauve placed higher than any Shark, when she
finished sixth in the 50-metre butterfly, with a
time of 33.37 seconds.

The Strathmore High School took a few minutes before
tipoff of the South Central Zone 3A basketball champion-
ships to recognize their graduating class.
The Spartans senior girls squads zone championships took
place in High River, but they opened the tourney with one fi-
nal home game, as they took on the Bow Valley High School
Bobcats.
Prior to the game, a speech prepared by head coach Dion
Galandy and assistant Leslie Larson was read, as the girls
were presented with framed photos, reflecting their time
with the Spartans.
Words such as focused, positivity, determination, coachabil-
ity and talented, were used to describe their time together.
It was an emotional moment for power forward Tatum Wa-
then, who began to tear up after the game at just the thought
of graduating the basketball program.
Its really sad, I dont want the season to be over, said
Wathen. It was really nice of them to honour us like that and
bring closure to our career.
Wathen had a great season on the glass for the Spartans,
crashing the boards on every opportunity; she was one of
the top rebounders.
Next year, she plans on attending Mount Royal University
(MRU), where she will begin working on her bachelor of
communications with a major in public relations. Helping the
transition to university will be her roommate and fellow grad
Ffyona Gibson-Smith, who will enter the education program.
Gibson-Smith was one of the more aggressive drivers on
the Spartans. Whenever the threes werent falling, she would
take the ball in transition, carving her way to the tin for an
easy bucket.
Pacey Strangling Wolf will also be attending MRU and will
study criminal justice.
We were a pretty close-knit group, said Strangling Wolf.
Nobody got left out and we all had the same goal of work-
ing hard and wanting to win. This was a nice way to end our
high school career.
None of the three think they will play for the Cougars, but
if they choose to team up, they would make quite the formi-
and hopes her hoop dreams arent over yet.
Its tough, I want to keep playing basketball,
to become a doctor, said Kennedy. I have some
time still, I will try and figure it out.
The Spartans rode off into the sunset with a 60-
46 win in their final game on home turf.
The senior boys program also recognized their
graduating players before getting their zone tour-
nament underway.
The group of graduating athletes has succeeded
in several sports at SHS; playing football, volley-
ball, basketball and running cross-country.
Head coach Matt Laslo will have his hands full
trying to replace seven seniors next season.
Presented with a framed picture of some of their
highlights, Mackenzie Bain, Caleb Funk, Jonathan
Le May, Connor McBean, J.J. Pelly, Isaiah Simwamu
and Isaac Wegner will all be moving on next year.
The seniors were huge factors down the stretch
and we needed them to be this weekend, said
Laslo. Its really cool to have a group that has
played together for three years that you can rely
on in a big game and just leave them out there.

school career end at the place where it all began.
Having zones here has probably been the high-
light for me, said Bain. The fans are always great
here and Im just so glad to end my career at home
in these big games.
Bain is still sorting out his path for next season,
but has been in contact with a few post-secondary
schools in B.C. and will take general sciences until
he figures things out.
Le May has been one of the most reliable scor-
ers on the roster. He can either break out a variety
of moves, spinning, backing defenders down in
the paint, or stepping out to splash a three.
It meant a lot to me and the other guys to be
recognized like that, said Le May. We have been
going to school for a while now together, it was
touching to have our school honour us like that.
Le May will take the next two years and em-
bark on an LDS mission, spreading the word of his
religion around the world, with hopes of return-
ing one day, picking up basketball in the college
ranks.
The Spartans were eliminated from zones in a
thrilling semifinal game against the Canmore Col-
legiate High School Crusaders, losing 85-84.

Chiefs capture division crown
TYLER LOWEY
Times Reporter I was surprised by their reaction to winning it, said Chiefs
After a dominating regular season, the Wheatland Chiefs
hit a bit of adversity in their South Central Hockey League
playoffs, before reverting back to their world-beating ways in
the south division final.
The local double-A midget team exacted some revenge
on the Lethbridge Hurricanes, piping them 5-0 March 12 at
Medicine Hat Arena to capture their second-straight south
division title.
Earlier in the tournament, after a sizzling hot start by
crushing the Foothills Bisons 5-1 (March 9) and destroying
the Okotoks Oilers Green 11-2 (March 10), they took their
foot off the gas in the third period against the Hurricanes,
resulting in a 3-3 tie (March 11).
We got complacent up 3-1 in the second, said Chiefs as-
sistant coach Matt Gass. Even though we outshot the Hur-
ricanes by 28, we didnt give it our best effort closing out the
game.
The tie knocked the Chiefs out of the top seed heading
into the elimination round. Instead of a rematch with the
Foothills Bisons, they were forced to play the Medicine Hat
Hounds in the semis.
The Hounds finished the regular season 12 points behind
the Chiefs in second, and were one of two teams to defeat
them this season.
Teams were tied 2-2 after the second period on goals from
Rylan Longmuir and A.J. Kusu.
Wacy Sandum scored 17 seconds into the third frame from
Kelton Travis and Ryan Bell, but a late slashing penalty to
Chayse Hnatowich opened the door for the Hounds one last
time.
With 37 seconds left in regulation, Maverick Cox tied the
game from Cody Riehl and Martiz Watz.
During the intermission, we just told our guys to stay fo-
cused, said Gass. We knew we were beating them all game
and that they got lucky with a penalty at the end. We just
needed to keep battling and our hard work was going to pay
off.
Robert Butterwick sent the Chiefs into the finals on a feed
from Riley Romashenko 2:47 into the extra frame.
After seeing their season flash before their eyes, the Chiefs
entered the south division finals on a mission, in a rematch
against the Hurricanes.
The leagues regular season top point-getter, Isaac Ben-
oit, scored the winner 58 seconds into the first period from
Clouston.
Kelton Travis netted an unassisted marker less than two
minutes later, and Benoit closed out the frame with his sec-
ond of the period from Butterwick and Romashenko.
Lucas Muenchrath sniped a short-handed marker midway
through the second period from Sandum, and Longmuir put
the Hurricanes to bed in the third from Clouston and Travis.
Ty Tarvyd was spectacular in net, making 28 saves for the
shutout.
Following the celebration, Chiefs captain Bell was pre-
sented with the championship banner, but respectfully and
superstitiously declined to grab it for a photo, realizing the
Hawks young core ends season
TYLER LOWEY
Times Reporter brushed back the Hawks 61-57.
The Holy Cross Collegiate Hawks senior boys basketball
team might not have received the results they were searching
for at the 2A South Central Zone Championships last week-
end, but the future is still bright looking forward to next year.
We saw how close we are already to competing with the
top competition in our zone and we saw the compete level
we need in order to get to provincials, said Hawks head
coach Josh Jalbert. Its definitely an attainable goal next
year.
The Hawks opened the tourney against the eventual zone
champs, losing to the host Three Hills High School Royals
65-52 March 10.
Reid Jensen was the Hawks leading scorer in zones, but
had to work for his buckets, finishing 26-for-68 (22 per cent)
from the floor. He finished one rebound shy of a double-
double, with 21 points and nine rebounds. Fellow freshman
Alex Nwoye chipped in with 16 points and seven rebounds,
and Luke Sproul was strong in the paint, supplying six points
and nine rebounds.
Down by five with a minute remaining, the Hawks picked
up a couple quick baskets, edging the Prairie Christian Acad-
emy Sabres 60-59.
Jensen recorded 18 points, eight boards and eight steals,
while Nwoye pulled the double-double with 15 points and 10
rebounds, going 3-of-6 from beyond the arc.

win was only step one of three along the way.
head coach Evan Barlow. They took it upon themselves to
have the mentality that this was just a step towards an ul-
timate goal. It was pretty neat to see that from kids at that
age.
Now the Chiefs shift their focus to the Airdrie Lightning for
the SCHAL crown and the right to head to provincials.
Michael DuBois scored in overtime as the Lighting edged
the Okotoks Oilers Black 4-3 March 12 at the Can Pak Arena
1.
The Lightning finished fifth in the north division, with a
14-16-6 record.
Airdrie is playing strong right now, said Gass. We havent
seen them since the start of the season, but, from what I hear,
they are a big, physical team and we are going to have to at-
tack them with our speed.
Game 1 of the best-of-three series goes March 17 at the
Strathmore Family Centre. Game 2 is set for March 18 in
Airdrie, and if necessary, Game 3 would go March 19 back
in Strathmore.
The Chiefs skimmed the Lightning 4-3 in Strathmore back
on Dec. 11 in the only meeting between the two teams.
Benoit led the Chiefs with seven goals and a pair of assists
over the weekend. Butterwick finished with eight points and
Hnatowich recorded six points.
Tarvyd won all three of his starts, posting a .940 save per-
centage and a 1.60 goals-against average. Riley Stovka helped
out, going 1-0-1, with a .890 save percentage and a 2.00 goals
against.
BRAVES STRUGGLE
The local double-A peewee Braves struggled during their
playoff tournament in Olds over the weekend.
The Braves dropped the opener to the Red Deer Motors 5-2
March 10 at the Olds and District Sports Complex.
Things didnt get any better from there. They lost their next
two games to the Bow Valley Timberwolves 8-1 (March 10)
and fell 9-1 later that afternoon to the host Olds Grizzlys.
In their final game of the season, Philip Raycroft scored
with 8:15 remaining in the third to tie the Airdrie Lighting
White 3-3 March 11.
Raycroft led the Braves with three goals. Tate Yule sniped a
goal and two assists, while Nolan Mahussier tied for the team
lead in points with three assists.
WARRIORS WINLESS
The bantam Warriors will not be defending their south di-
vision title this season.
They went winless in Okotoks, losing their last game of the
season 6-2 March 11 to the Medicine Hat Hounds.
They opened the tournament with a 9-5 loss to the Leth-
bridge Hurricanes (March 9), followed by a 3-1 loss to the
host Okotoks Oilers (March 10).
The Warriors lost a barnburner March 11 to the Taber
Golden Suns 10-8.
Mitch Tessemaker led the Warriors with four goals and four
assists, Adam Kirkpatrick supplied six points, and Nolan Bai-
ley and Trey Gillis tied for third on the team with four points.
In the finale, the Notre Dame Collegiate Timberwolves
Jensen turned in his most efficient performance, register-
ing 29 points on 11-of-19 shots. Nwoye grabbed 10 boards
to go with his three points, Sproul yanked down nine boards
and supplied 10 points, and Ralph Valencia recorded seven
points and five rebounds.
Out of 11 players on Jalberts roster, only Kyle Gerencer,
Jericho Ricafort and Sproul wont be back because they will
have graduated by the time next season tips off.
This year, we saw how talented we are, the potential we
have moving forward and it was exciting, said Jalbert. We
grew a lot, got smarter, and that year of experience for a
young core definitely helped.
SENIOR GIRLS END SEASON WITH WIN
The Hawks senior girls squad put a bow on their season
with a convincing win in their final game of zones in Brooks.
The Hawks dumped the Hugh Sutherland School Kodiaks
61-41March 11.
It was good to see us end the season like that. We learned
a lot of skills this year. We knew coming in that if we worked
hard and had some fun, it would be a good year, said Hawks
head coach Brad Everett.
Despite a late surge from the three-point line, the Hawks
fell 58-54Didsbury High School Dragons.
Dealt a tough hand to open zones, the Hawks took on top-
ranked J.C. Charyk Hawks, and got thumped 59-24.
