Brennan Jones of Weyburn will be going to the Saskatchewan Provincial Tankard next month as part of the Pat Simmons rink of Regina. Jones curls second, while teammates Dallen Muyres and Steve Laycock curl lead and third, respectively.

Weyburn 5-Estevan 1: January 2 Weyburn took an early lead January 2 at the 17:57 mark of the first period and never relinquished the lead to their arch nemesis from Estevan.

The Eagle Drilling Estevan Bruins hockey club has announced they have relieved head coach and general manager Karry Biette of his duties. Bruins' president Jeff Pierson asked Biette for his resignation on Monday morning.

The Estevan based Trent's Tire curling team consisting of skip Colby Fessler, third Karlee Fessler, second Layne Hawrylak, and lead Taylor Marcotte competed in the Regina Youth Junior Boys/Mixed 17 and under Bonspiel Dec. 27-30, 2010.

The Highway 39 rivalry is alive and well. After three heated battles in as many days, the Eagle Drilling Estevan Bruins and Weyburn Red Wings made it very clear that they do not like each other.

When the Eagle Drilling Estevan Bruins suit up for their home game against the Melfort Mustangs this Saturday night, they'll have a new, but familiar face at the helm. The game will be Chad Leslie's first as the team's new head coach.
