New Brunswick’s other medal at the Canada Games this year came on Monday as Zachary Newman of Bathurst won bronze in the men’s 50 metre breaststroke.
Meanwhile, there is a big story happening in men’s baseball, as Canada’s smallest province, Prince Edward Island is undefeated at five wins and zero losses. On Wednesday, they beat British Columbia 3-1 in the qualification round and will play British Columbia in the semifinals again on Friday. The other semifinal has Saskatchewan versus Quebec.
