Canmore climber Alexa Vanier is headed to the national youth team selection camp in March after finishing in second at the Canadian Youth Bouldering Nationals

After a four-game skid, the Eagles will need to rely on its veteran core to lead the young team into the playoffs

Thanks to a string of podium finishes, local alpine skier Caleb Brooks is headed to Slovenia and Croatia to compete in his first international competition overseas.

The Canmore Eagles snapped the Oilers 13-game winning streak during a home-and-away with Okotoks over the weekend.

After beating the Brooks Bandits in back-to-back games, the Eagles will look to ride the high as they face off against the red hot Okotoks Oilers in pair of weekend games

“It is great to see four of our climbers qualify for the nationals. I think all-in-all most of our climbers achieved what they set out to do. We had seven kids reach the semis. It was great to see the walls full of Canmore climbers."

The Eagles will need to lean on secondary scoring and solid goaltending to challenge the Brooks Bandits

“We are an offensive-forward team. All five guys get involved in the offence and I think right now every line can move the puck, every line can skate, every line knows their role and it’s really working well right now."

Laura Walker continued her hot streak downing Kelsey Rocque 8-4 to remain undefeated in the Scotties

Rocque and Walker remain perfect, will face off this evening
