8 J uly 11'19 HANNA/CORONATION/STETTl ER, AB. <strong>ECA</strong> REVIEW<br />
Prairie Land athletes aiming high, scoring higher<br />
Submitted<br />
Each year we are privileged to watch<br />
our student athletes excel and compete<br />
in a wide variety of sports.<br />
Sometimes individuals or teams<br />
make it to zones or provincials and we<br />
are honoured they represent Prairie<br />
Land Regional Division (PLRD).<br />
It is not always about the banners<br />
hanging in a school’s gymnasium, it is<br />
about the heart and soul of the athlete,<br />
their determination and perseverance;<br />
the way a team comes together on the<br />
court, the lessons learned and the battles<br />
fought.<br />
There are also hundreds of students<br />
who take part in community sports<br />
such as dance, hockey, baseball, soccer,<br />
high school rodeo.<br />
The list is endless and whether it is<br />
for recreation or competitive, PLRD is<br />
very proud of all of our athletes.<br />
