Saskatoon Track Club – February Athlete of the Month

Saskatoon Track Club is proud to recognize Rylan Fugel as our February Athlete of the Month.

Rylan delivered an outstanding performance at the Canadian Indoor U20 Championships, showcasing his versatility in the jumps. He captured the national title in the long jump with a leap of 6.81m. Rylan also earned bronze in the high jump, clearing an impressive 1.96m to secure his second medal of the meet.

His performances this season have been exciting to watch, and we’re looking forward to seeing what he accomplishes next.

Congratulations, Rylan!

Saskatoon Track Club is proud to recognize Kerri Lovelace as our January Athlete of the Month.

Kerri kicked off the 2026 indoor season in record-breaking fashion at the K of C Games, blazing down the track to a time of 7.83 in the 60m. The performance not only earned her a standout result, but also set a new Canadian W40 record in the event.

This incredible achievement reflects Kerri’s dedication, consistency, and passion for the sport. Her performance is a great reminder that speed, determination, and competitive spirit have no age limit.

Congratulations, Kerri! We are excited to see what the rest of the season holds.

December Athlete of the Month: Bailee Chupa

Bailee Chupa is our athlete of the month for December! She has been putting in the work resulting in big PBs at her season opener at Field Fest. In shot put, she went from 9.17m to 10.79m. In weight throw, she threw 12.48m with her previous PB being 11.49. Bailee balances track practices with late night club volleyball and evening welding courses. Well done Bailee!

Saskatoon Track Clubs Fall Athlete of the Month: Emma Harder

A Grade 11 endurance athlete from Maymont, Emma has levelled up in a big way. Last year she placed 4th at provincials. This year she stormed to silver, clocking 3:53/km over 4 km, and later finished 60th at nationals in 24:22 on a slick course.

She thrives in the 1500m and 3000m, has embraced the 800m for speed, and trains with joy, humility, and consistency. “Running is my happy place,” she says, and it shows.

When she’s not flying on the trails and track, she’s reading playing piano, singing, hooping, or exploring the outdoors.

Congrats Emma! Your work ethic and love for the sport inspire our Club Community!
