Matthew B. - Ultimate Frisbe, Grade 8 ( Brossard, QC)
Matthew (Grade 8, Brossard, Que) delivered an outstanding performance during the ultimate Frisbee league finals, proving to be a true game-changer for our team. Trailing 6-0 against BCS, he sparked our comeback with an incredible diving catch in the end zone for our first point. Moments later, he made another spectacular diving catch at midfield before throwing a perfect pass into the end zone for another score. Although we ultimately lost 11-9, we scored more points against BCS than any other team had all season! He followed that performance with another strong game against Le Salésien, helping us secure the win and earning himself the title of MVP of the day. Beyond his performance in the finals, he has shown tremendous resilience, determination, and impressive improvement throughout the season. A well-deserved recognition to for an athlete who simply loves playing the game! Co-Athlete of the Week, from ultimate Frisbee, Matthew B.

Ben R. - Golf, Grade 11 (Stanstead, QC)
In the inaugural fall season of golf at Stanstead College, this student-athlete has been all in. Ben (Grade 11, Stanstead) has been steadily improving his consistency, shot selection, and composure on the course. Last Friday, he shot a 78 and won the First Annual Stanstead Invitational Tournament in a playoff, on a very cold day of golf. He missed a putt to win on 18 that could have sent any golfer spiraling. He showed excellent mental strength to stay with it and went back to the tee on 18 where he eventually won on the first playoff. Co-Athlete of the Week, from the golf team, Ben R.
