Local Judoka wins medal at Ontario Winter Games

Just one medal for Kenora fighters at the Ontario Winter Games judo tournament this weekend in Collingwood.

The Jaffray Melick Judo Club sent four members as part of Team Northwest.

Karly Lockhart was the lone medalist, picking up a bronze medal in the under 16, 44 kilo division.

In volleyball action, it was a learning experience for Team Northwest, as the girls squad, represented by players from Kenora, Dryden and Rainy River, failed to win a match in two days of competition.
