Cochrane's Team Bakos are heading to the Curling Alberta U18 Provincials at the end of the month.

The province-wide tournament sees the top U18 teams across Alberta compete for the title of Team Alberta 2020.

Although the teammates have all experienced curling success separately, this is their first season competing together.

David Cooper is the coach of Team Bakos and he says that the team is proud and excited about their accomplishments. He says "We're proud to be sponsored by the Cochrane Curling Club, and excited to be off to the Provincial Finals after a winning weekend in the Crowsnest Pass and going through undefeated as the ‘A’ qualifier from the event.

Team Bakos is comprised of Skip: Julia Bakos, Vice-skip: Julianna MacKenzie, Second: Paige Morrison, Lead: Elspeth Cooper, and Coach: David Cooper.

Cochrane will have two teams competing in the U18 women's provincials this year. Team Cinnamon is also heading to the provincials.

The provincials are taking place from February 25 to March 1 in Sexsmith, Alberta.
