Dongjun Won made it to the bronze medal game.
NIPAWIN – A member of the Estevan Comprehensive School’s badminton team finished fourth at the Saskatchewan High Schools Athletic Association’s provincial championship in Nipawin on Saturday.
Dongjun Won represented the school at the tournament. Won had a great start, defeating an athlete out of Moose Jaw Central 2-0 (21-14, 21-10) to start the round robin. He then lost 2-0 (21-15, 21-17) to Felix Lin of Saskatoon’s Walter Murray Collegiate, who went on to win the provincial championship, but Won rebounded to win 2-0 (21-17, 21-17) against a player from Englefeld to finish the round robin with a 2-1 record and advance to the semifinal.
He fell 2-0 (21-9, 21-9) to Michael Yan from Walter Murray, and lost a tight 2-0 (21-19, 21-19) decision to Sebastian Callo of Regina’s Luther College in the bronze medal game. Callo also defeated Won in the final of the regional qualifier the previous weekend.
