The group competing front Estevan incluses Carson Perkins (high lump), William Chamney (100 metres, 200 metres, high lump), Kyle Seipp (discus), Cole MacCuish (quadrathlon), Keena McKnight (800 metres, 1500 metres, 3000 metres), Kolby Fleury (discus), Blaine Herzberg (400 metres, 4x100 metre relaie, 4x400 metre relaie), David Kleemola (800 metres, 1500 metres, 3000 metres), Carlton Stachoski (200 metres, 4x100 metres) and Kristina Chamney (100 metres, hurles, 4x100 metres).

"The team is expected to do very well and they will definitely be bringing some strong competition to the championships," said ECS track coach Caitlin Fowler.

"I am very proud of the team this year and have enjoyed my time with them immensely."

ECS only sent 18 athletes to regionals in Carnduff due to injuries, but 16 of those moved on to districts in Weyburn. Along with many podium finishes at districts, ECS also had three athletes win the top points award in their age group. Two athletes set new meet records.

Several athletes started the season with two months of pre-season training and conditioning by working hard four days a week to get in shape and get a head start on the competition.
