The Winnipeg Goldeyes came out on top in a 5 to 2 win over the Sioux Falls Canaries at the July 14 game sponsored by The University of Winnipeg.

On hand were nearly 40 University of Winnipeg alumni as the Alumni Association also held its annual Goldeyes Alumni Group Event at the Thursday night game at CanWest Global Park, with Association President Michael Bayer throwing the ceremonial opening pitch.

To the delight of the crowd, Colin Russell, UWinnipeg Director Student Services – Academic Advising and Special Needs Services, beautifully sang the national anthems.

The University of Winnipeg offered ticket giveaways to neighbourhood children and residents and CBC listeners as a way of sharing the fun of a night at the ballpark.
