The Bantam AA 57’s fell one game short of playing in the provincial final over the weekend in Macklin.

Swift Current opened play with a 4-2 win over the Regina Pacers, and followed that up with a 9-5 win over Dinsmore.

A 12-2 loss to Muenster meant a 2-1 round robin record, and second place in the group.

Matched up in a provincial semi-final with Parkland, the Bantam AA 57’s fell 2-1 in a pitchers’ duel to narrowly miss out the chance to play for gold.
