Yorkton Run Over By Central Freight Train In Shutout Loss

Lead by three touchdowns by Keaton Belsher and an interception by Paul Barth for a touchdown the Central Cyclones have defeated the Yorkton Regional Raiders 26 - 0 in the 12-aside 5A South Rural League.

The win by the Cyclones is the first time in 23 years that Yorkton has suffered a shutout loss at home.

The Cyclones defence put in a stupendous effort effectively shutting down the Raiders offence.

Barth hit the Raiders offence with some massive tackles.

Also putting in a strong game was running back Javin Boynton who rushed for major yardage.

Coincidentally today is also Boynton’s birthday.
