Roblin Millers win Western Canada intermediate broomball gold
The Roblin Millers capped a standout run at the Western Canadian Championships in Victoria B C by capturing the gold medal and becoming Western Canada’s No 1 intermediate broomball team. The victory came after a 1 0 round robin win over Victoria BC and a dramatic 6 8 OT loss to North Battleford Saskatchewan, then a 4 1 semi final win over Alberta and a 5 0 final round mercy win over Vernon BC. Star goalie Barry Edel posted two goals allowed in seven games while Craig Griffin and Doug Nixon provided clutch strikes in the title bout. The team faced injuries throughout the campaign but claimed Manitoba’s first gold in the event and thanked supporters in Roblin and Victoria.
