Two North Battleford natives make Saskatoon Hilltops roster
Two North Battleford natives will try and become key figures on the highly-successful Saskatoon Hilltops football team over the next few years.
Taylon Elderkin and Jesse McNabb have their feet in the proverbial door as they have made the team out of the spring training camps.
“There were four morning sessions that took place in Saskatoon and afterwards we had our spring camp,” Elderkin said. “Every second Sunday we have practices leading up to the season. It was a weekend in May we had the spring camp and that’s basically when they told us whether or not we made the team.”
Elderkin said there were 40 players who tried out for the team, with 26 making the roster. He added after the first two training sessions he was told he had a very good chance at making the team. Now his goal is to make the starting roster.
