Kristi Roots of the PoCo Judo Club grabbed a bronze medal in the women's Under-20 division at the Saskatchewan Open tournament last weekend in Regina.
Roots finished with a 4-2 record in the tourney, which attracted more than 400 competitors from Western Canada and served as a warm-up to the Canada Winter Games in Halifax, N.S. on Feb. 13-17. She was also part of the 10-member B.C. squad which won team silver.
