Estevan Mercury

The Estevan TS&M Tornados suffered the same fate in back-to-back games in Melville on Sunday. The Tornados lost both games of the doubleheader by identical 16-6 scores to fall to 1-5 in Baseball Regina peewee AAA action.

It was a light week for the Estevan Devils, with their only game being a 12-2 loss to the Moose Jaw Mustangs on the road Monday night. Cam Biette scored both goals for Estevan.

According to veteran radio evangelist Harold Camping, the world is coming to an end this Saturday at noon, a half-hour later in Newfoundland. That is the time Jesus is set to appear from stage right and send the world into a tizzy.

Drivers from southeast Saskatchewan and across the midwestern United States will congregate in Estevan tonight for the first race night of the 2011 season at Estevan Motor Speedway.

For two periods, the Estevan Big Dogs gave the Regina Riot everything they could handle in an entertaining Prairie Gold Lacrosse League battle.

Much of Estevan Woodlawn Golf Course is underwater for the second time this spring, but it's much worse this time around.

Estevan's AA baseball teams were no match for the Regina Buffalos on Saturday. The Sherritt Coal Haulers and KPC Sluggers each played doubleheaders against Buffalo teams and the Regina clubs won all four games.

It would be easy to line up on the skeptical side, but this time around, we believe the latest plan for downtown renewal can actually get and retain a good foothold.

Two of the games were very close. Two were blowouts. But all four were registered in the loss column for the Southeast Legacy Twins.

Sometimes the headlines in the hockey world go far beyond the game itself. Sometimes they are tragic, like last Friday's discovery of Rangers enforcer Derek Boogaard, dead in his Minneapolis apartment.
