After 18 hard fought holes, two teams were tied at 7 under. The match was settled with aclosest to the pin con- test from 100 yards on # 18.

Maureen Lisle Contributor Ten Madill athletes competed in the OFSAA West Regional Meet in Cambridge on May 28, 2016. Track and field athletes from CWOSSA, SWOSSA, and WOSSAA converge and com- pete for the opportunity to represent their school at the Ontario high school champion- ships (OFSAA) to be held in Windsor. In a field often touted as the most compet- itive regional meet in the province, only the top four athletes and relay teams in each event advance to OFSAA. Even in the midst of tough competition, Madill athletes excelled earning five 'per- sonal bests' (Taylor Montgomery in discus, Austin Eadie in long jump, Mitch Deans in triple jump and Ben Newell in discus) and four top eight finishes. The Junior Girls 4X100m relay team connected flawlessly sprinting the baton around the track in their best time of the season (54.34). This time was remarkable because a midget girl, Jor- dyn Stuzman, filled in for Jessica Johnston who was unable to attend. Justin McKague cleared the high jump bar at 1.90m to earn third place and qualification to OFSAA. This marks McKague's fifth con- secutive year qualifying for OFSAA in high jump. This is a feat rarely accomplished by a high school athlete. Funding to our health care system will increase by over $1 billion this year. ontario.ca/bettercare Submitted F.E. Madill students took part in the OFSAA West Regional Meet in Cambridge on May 28, 2016 McKague became the lone Track and Field athlete from Madill to represent the school at OFSAA held June 2-4 at University of Windsor. Many other athletes on the Madill team are preparing next for the District C Legion Meet to be held June 25 at the Davidson Center in Kincardine.
