    Four teams from the Drumheller Girls Softball Association headed out to Stettler this past weekend.
 The teams took part in a tournament hosted by Stettler and came home all smiles.
    The U-10 Comets came away with one win and two losses.  Coach Justin Bolin was very pleased with how the girls played.
    The U-12 Comets won all three of their round robin games and played Trochu in the gold medal game and won 11-9.  
    Coach Kelsey Calon said, “The girls faced some tough moments, including freezing temperatures and dust storms, during the weekend, but they fought hard and did what they had to do to come up with the wins.”
    The U-12 Renegades had two wins and a tie during their round robin setting them up to play Lacombe for the bronze medal.  Some very bizarre circumstances arose and the umpire ended up calling the close game prematurely without explanation, causing the Renegades to lose by two runs.
    The U-14 Comets went into the round robin with a very tough draw not winning any game. The teams they faced ended up winning the gold and silver medals for their age group.
