Weyburn Senior Men’s Golf donates to irrigation project
The Weyburn Senior Men’s Golf had their windup lunch, 2023 Award Winners and 50/50 money presentation on Thursday, with 27 golfers taking part.
The Senior Men meet every Tuesday and Thursday, playing a handicap Stratford system on Tuesdays and Skins on Thursdays, with 39 games held since the season began on May 16. There is also a Deuce Pot every week.
Lyman Sargent won the Masters division, for those 70 and over, with a total of 547 points using the Stratford rules.
Don Ruckaber won the Senior division, for those 69 and under, with 549 total points. He also won the Ken Hill Trophy as the overall senior men’s winner.
There is a 50/50 draw every game day with half the proceeds going to the
Weyburn Golf Club Irrigation Project.
This year the Senior Men turned over $1,500 towards the Irrigation Project. In the last three years, the group raised $1,600 in 2021, $1,600 in 2022 and $1,500 this year, for a total of $4,700.
Presenting the money to Golf Club manager Chad Brock were treasurer Stan Runne, executive members Frank Kaip and Mickey Woodard and fundraiser chair Murray Benson.
The Weyburn Golf Course will soon close for the season. The 18-hole golf course has two distinct nines, with the front having tighter fairways and smaller greens and the back nine with bigger greens and more bunkering. The irrigation project helps keep all the greens and fairways in good condition.
WCS Eagles win vs Swift Current, battle of undefeated teams Friday
The Weyburn Comp Eagles football team traveled to Swift current on Saturday for their second game of the season verses the home town colts.
The Colts were coming off a tough loss against Moose Jaw Central while the Eagles were still flying high after a first week win verses Estevan.
After the Eagles received the opening kickoff, the offense went to work with Conner Kerr connecting with Nolan Uhren on the first play for 37 yards, then another pass to Jarret Hayward for 11 yards and on the next play with Isaiah Sanderson for 19 before Kerr punches it in on the ground for the first score! When the eagles got the ball back Kerr connected with Asher knox for 11 on their first play to get the team rolling again. Owen Istace carried the ball on the next play for 15 yards and then a quick strike from Kerr to Jarret Hayward for a 30 yard touchdown.
After a safety by Swift Current and a fumble on the Eagles side, Swift Current was not about to go quietly by putting together a solid drive to score the first touchdown against the Eagles defense this year making the score 16-7.
The Eagles were quick to respond with a short first down run and on second down Kerr again connecting with Uhren for a 62
yard catch and run down to the Colt 10 yard line. After Kerr runs the next play to the 1 yard line, Owen Istace tops off the 4 play drive for the Eagles major!
To start the second quarter, and after the defense steps up and provided a quick two and out the Eagles went to the air again with Kerr and Sanderson this time connecting for a 55 yard touchdown pass on their first play to push the score to 30-0.
A swift Current fumble on the post field goal kickoff leads to a Weyburn drive ending with a Kerr Field goal. After another great defensive stand swift current looked punt and saw the snap go high over the head of the punter and the eagles would take over on the Swift current one yard line…scoring the next play with a James Ashworth run to the left side.
After each team exchanged a series of offensive sessions…Linebacker Alex Junk intercepts his first of three in the first half, taking it to the Colt second-yard line! Next play now on offence, Junk finished it off with a touchdown plunge.
Then on the next defensive series Junk gets number two and returns it to the Colt 10 yard line. With Nolan Uhren now in at QB, he connects two plays later with Haydin Buehler for the Major.
Just before the Half,
Kerr kicks a 14 yard field goal to enter the break with the Eagles up 57-7!
In the second half the Eagles substituted players as much as possible with Grade 9 quarterback Cooper Knox leading them onto the field. A quick second half with the clock running straight time gave the Eagles staff a chance to test some players in a senior game at multiple positions with the defense holding Swift off the board and the Eagles scoring a Field goal by Tace Odima as the only score of the half.
Other key stats from the game included:
Top Passing: Conner Kerr went eight for nine with 224 yards.
Top Receiving: Nolan Uhren 97 yards, Isaiah Sanderson 73 yards, Jarret Hayward 61 yards. Team rushing was 101 yards.
The Eagles are excited to host their Home Opener this week. The MJ Central Cyclones come to Weyburn for a battle of undefeated teams on Friday, Sept. 22 at 7 p.m. This should be the game of the week for sure. Residents are encouraged to come on down to the WMF field for some Friday night fun. Adults are $5for entry and all students and children get in free!
For the Friday Night lights game, Hoot Oilfield has donated a guaranteed 50/50 jackpot of $1,000 so residents can come on down and get their tickets.
