Two Flin Flon Bombers have been named to the SJHL All Rookie Team.
Defenceman Cory Thomas, 17, and netminder Brenden Newton, 19, were part of the six-man lineup unveiled by the league on Monday.
Thomas “has been a regular on the blueline with one of the SJHL’s top teams despite still having a year of midget [eligibility],” reads the SJHL website.
Newton, meanwhile, “has been amongst the league’s top puckstoppers and was named the SJHL Rookie Of The Month for January as he filled in for an injured Zac Robidoux during a stretch after Christmas where the Bombers went 8-and-1 with Newton between the pipes.”
Also on the All Rookie Team are Battlefords blueliner Cody Spagrud, Yorkton forward McKenzie Welke, and Battlefords forwards Coby Downs and Layne Young.
