Athletes from across the region will be in Erie this weekend in two sporting events: the 14U AA Fall Showcase youth hockey tournament and the Eerie Power meet.
The 14U AA Fall Showcase, organized by Lake Effect Hockey, will run Friday through Sunday at Flo Fabrizio Ice Center.
The showcase will feature teams from Pennsylvania, Ohio and Michigan.
“This event allows 14U AA teams to compete at a high level while gaining exposure to help better their skills heading into the season,” said Jason Fowler, owner of Lake Effect Hockey. “Erie frequently hosts competitive youth hockey events like this one, which gives players consistent opportunities to develop and showcase their talent.”

The competition will feature 45 lifters. Participants will include men and women ranging in age from eight to 82.
It is expected to conclude by 4 p.m.
