The Estevan Comprehensive School boys' and girls' soccer squads have provincials in their sights, and to get there they'll have to qualify through regionals in Weyburn next weekend.

The Estevan Bruins dropped the first half of a home-and-home series against the Yorkton Terriers Tuesday with a 4-1 loss, their first in Spectra Place. Jeremy Johnson paced the Terriers with two goals.

The Estevan Bruins got three goals from rookie forwards Saturday to defeat the Weyburn Red Wings 3-1 and salvage the split in a home-and-home series against their Highway 39 rivals. A third-period comeback fell short Friday in Weyburn in a 5-4 loss.

Model engines of all kinds will be featured at the latest installment of Kelly Tytlandsvik's annual outing, known as the Model Engineering Show.

One night after a wild comeback fell short in Weyburn, the Estevan Bruins took an early lead and held on for a 3-1 win over the Red Wings on Saturday at Spectra Place.

As long as there's still a glimmer of hope, there's no use examining where this 2011 season for the Saskatchewan Roughriders went so horribly wrong. But we're getting close to that point.
