The Grande Prairie Warriors won their regional championship Saturday game and their injured teammate has started to breathe on his own. Zachary Judd, 15, has been in a medically induced coma after the car crash two weeks ago that killed four of his teammates. Family members say Judd is slowly starting to regain consciousness and has started to breathe on his own. So far, Judd has opened his eyes a couple of times, but can’t communicate. He is recovering in an Edmonton hospital.
The Warriors play in the first round of the Alberta Tier 1 playdowns against CFC #10 ranked Bev Facey Falcons. Playoff football is all around you. Get out and watch some.
The CFC ‘top 25’ high school rankings is released between Sunday at 6pm and Monday at 12 noon depending on when scores are reported.
