Some of the top young baseball players in the province were in Estevan on the weekend for the Baseball Sask. U13 AA Tier 2 provincial baseball tournament at Mel Murray Cactus Park.  

Eight teams competed in the event, including the Estevan Brewers – comprised of players from the house league teams in Estevan Minor Baseball. 

The Brewers dropped the three games they played in their round robin: 15-2 to the Melfort Selects on Friday afternoon, and then 11-6 to the Saskatoon Blue Jay Mud Dawgz and 18-1 to the North Battleford Beavers on Saturday.  

(Further information on the games was not available).  

Members of the Brewers were Logan Piper, Tanner Gillespie, Halen Lesy, Talon Williamson, Connor Paton, Chayse Zohner, Keith Daae, Ayden James McKenzie, Aidan Turner, Quintin Sliva, Boston Tait and Jaxon Smith.

The Maidstone Lakers defeated the Beavers 8-2 in the final. 

The other teams entered were the Saskatoon Cardinals, the Nipawin Giants and the Kindersley Royals. 

The tournament featured a round robin with the eight teams divided into two pools of four. The top two teams from each pool advanced to the semifinal round. 

In addition to the games, opening ceremonies were held late Friday afternoon, and then a skills competition happened in the evening. 

In a message to the Mercury, Estevan Minor Baseball president Joe Williamson said they received rave reviews, including one from Donna Iverson, the U13 director for the Beavers. It reads: 

“We had the privilege of being in the U13 provincials in your community this weekend. We just want to say thank you for hosting and doing such an amazing job. The sportsmanship your team extended to our players is to be commended as well. Thanks again for a job well done.”  

Estevan will host provincials at the U11 and U15 levels from Aug. 13-15.
