Regina.

Botnen earned three
individual and the all-around

leading the B.C. Argo girls
to the team championship.
Last year Botnen was the
silver medallist in the Argo
category.

Team mate Tracy Wilson
earned two individual golds
plus the gold All Around in
the Tyro category. Her
performance led the B.C.
Tyro team to a second place
victory.

Gold medals are nothing
new to the outstanding
athlete — last year she won
the Argo championship.

formances, the B.C. Novice
