Varsity Girls Hockey Spartan Maélie Laforge (Grade 12, Val-d’Or, Quebec) is one of the recipients of this year’s Montreal Canadiens Scholarship, presented this past Monday by the Aléo Foundation. The scholarships, totalling $75,000, are presented to elite, college and university hockey players who have distinguished themselves over the past year.

This Grade 10 student-athlete from Drummondville, Quebec, had an outstanding weekend during the Graham Neil Prep Boys Hockey Tournament. He led all defenceman in scoring during the weekend, with 3 goals and 2 assists in 6 games. He logged big minutes and was a shut-down force throughout the journey to the championship. He was rewarded for his strong play and leadership on the ice with the overall tournament MVP trophy. For his outstanding play in the big moment, congratulations, Athlete of the Week Éliot Faucher.

It has been 17 years since the name “Stanstead College” has appeared on the Graham Neil Hockey Tournament plaque. But after a few near misses in recent years, the Prep Boys Spartans brought it home this past Sunday in an exciting final against Triolet of Sherbrooke.
