22U Royals claim Provincial title, off to Western Championships
The 22U Prince Albert Royals came out on top of their AAA baseball Provincial Finals this weekend.
The Royals played in a best-of three series to decide a provincial champion against the Diefenbaker Ducks, which was played at Andy Zwack Field in Prince Albert.
“Overall, I thought we played well,” said Royals head coach Patrick Robin. “We really didn’t have much practice beforehand, but we were very closely matched in both areas of offence and defence.”
He added that either team had a short bench with Diefenbaker sporting a 10-man roster while P.A. only had nine, as first baseman Rylon Elmy was battling an injury.
