A trio of 2013 YRHS Jr. Raiders headed off to Winnipeg this week as members of Football Saskatchewan's U-16 South Sask roster at the Red River Cup, Western Canada's premier tournament for minor football.
Defensive tackle/running back Brayden Jarvis, offensive lineman Noah Zerr and middle linebacker Lukas Muir all made the final roster and headed off to Manitoba on July 5 to prepare for their tournament opener against Winnipeg West as well as a meeting with Winnipeg East on Day One of the tournament.
South Sask would split the two games against Winnipeg, losing the morning game against the West 27-6 before beating Winnipeg East 23-16.
Lukas Muir, who was named one of South Sask's "Players to Watch" heading into the tournament, registered three tackles on Day One while Brayden Jarvis, who played in 2012's Cup put in two tackles on Day One.
South Sask will play Lower Mainland B.C. before playing North Saskatchewan on Day Two before the tournament closes Saturday with championship and medal games rounding out the annual Cup.
