Canada Games Team Earns 6th Place Finish
Team Manitoba
finished 6th at the 2005 Canada Summer Games, after
losing a close tie with Nova Scotia. Three of the six
matches in the tie went to a super-tiebreaker, but
unfortunately it was not to be for Team ‘Toba.
After struggling
to a 1 and 3 record in round-robin action, Manitoba
defeated New Brunswick 4 matches to 3, winning the
deciding mixed doubles match in convincing fashion. That
win propelled the team into the 5th/6th playoff with
their rivals from the east coast.
Manitoba was
represented by Sean LaCap, Alex Lesiuk, Matt Luczynski,
Matt Younger, Alexa Zayac, Anita Paskvalin, Erica Chen
and Jaime Peterson. Jared Connell was Head Coach and
Erin Bodnarchuk was Team Manager.

Manitoba Well Represented at U12 Nationals
The 2005
U12 Outdoor Junior Nationals were held recently
in Mont Tremblant, Quebec at the Gray Rocks Club
and 9 Manitobans were part of the field of 64
athletes competing for National supremacy.
The team,
coached by George Kylar, consisted of Daniella
Silva, Jessica Silva, Jade Kirstein, Maya
Kirstein, Evann Waschuk, Kevin Kylar, Will
McPherson, Alex Minuk and Chad LaCap. The level
of competition was very high, but the team
members fought extremely hard and came up with
some good results. The top finisher from
Manitoba was Chad LaCap, who earned 5th place
after losing a tough three set match in the
quarter-finals.
