Athlete of the Week: Arianne Leblanc

This talented varsity girls hockey goaltender from Repentigny, Quebec had an incredible weekend between the pipes.  Saturday, she had a 38-save shutout and was instrumental in the victory with a depleted lineup. On Sunday, she made 35 saves in a 2-1 overtime loss (19 seconds left, breakaway goal, after making 2 breakaway saves in overtime to keep the game alive). All of this after a broken skate blade in first period. As the only goalie on the trip, Arianne (Grade 11) was forced to wear NAHA’s backup goalie's skates for the rest of the game. Not only were they not hers, they were half a size too small. These two performances came against a top 10 team in North America and #2 in independent school rankings. Congratulations, Arianne Leblanc.
