Local Judokas prepare for Ontario Winter Games

Four members of the Jaffray Melick Judo Club will be heading to Collingwood next week for the Ontario Winter Games.

This past weekend, three of the fighters got a tune-up by competing in the Inner City Judo Tournament in Winnipeg.

Karley Lockhart won gold in her under 15, 44 kilo division, while Thomas Hertz also won his under 15, 34 kilo grouping.

Daniel Gordon was fighting up a weight class, and finished out of the medals.

Taylor Tom will also be traveling to southern Ontario for the Winter Games next week.
