Canadore’s Logan Baker has been named to Canada’s team for a major international event.

He will take part in the FISU World University Championship in Mexico in November.

The team as named by the Canadian Weightlifting Federation includes 7 female and male lifers including the long time North Bay Norsemen and 2014 Canadian Junior Champion.

In the fall, Baker will study in Ireland at the Limerick Institute of Technology after graduating from Canadore’s Strength and Sports Conditioning Program.

Baker qualified for the team earlier this month at an event in Toronto and set personal and Norsemen records.
