Congratulations to our athletes of the month for October, Jacey and Jack from St Stephen High School.
It’s Jacey Calder’s senior season, and she’s working to make her fourth year the best yet. Building a legacy as the defending AA champion is a big demand on and off the court, but Jacey is up to the task. She’s showing great tenacity by completing 13 rebounds per league game. She also takes on increased offensive responsibilities and strives to mentor her new teammates. She is a stable and reassuring influence for her teammates in training and in the game. Always brave, she’s a tough defender and a key player for a women’s team that’s ranked first in the southern conference.
Jack Huys had an outstanding season for the Spartans going for more than 1,300 yards and 15 touchdowns. His performances have been recognized as he was named Co-Offensive Player of the Year for the NBIAA 9-Man League. He didn’t stop once the season ended came and the Spartans headed back to the playoffs. In the Spartans 45-14 semifinal win over the Simonds Seabees, Jack’s performance, who traveled 211 yards and recorded three touchdowns, propelled the team to its first championship game since 2018. In the finals on Nov. 9, Jack maintained his high level of play by traveling 233 yards and scoring 2 touchdowns as the Spartans defeated the Harbour View Vikings 38-12 to win their third provincial banner. Jack Huys was an exceptional athlete on the field and a remarkable leader in training. Jack is also a key member of the Spartans hockey team. In his third year in the team, Jack has taken on a leadership role and is vice-captain. His size and speed make him difficult to contain and he is a threat every time he steps on the ice, as he can punish you offensively or severely fail.
Congratulations to both athletes and thank you coaches and staff for taking the time to recognize these amazing students.

Congratulations to Makenzie Lea Wolf from Paul Rowe Jr/Sr High School, a dynamic volleyball player whose versatility and leadership shine!
At just 5’3”, Makenzie excelled as a libero this season, covering the court with ease, digging out tough hits, and rarely missing a serve-receive. When called to the front row, her precision allowed her to score against even triple blocks. Her ability to play both outside hitter and libero made her a key asset to her team’s success.
More than her skills, Makenzie uplifted her teammates, inspiring them to perform at their best and pushing the team further with her unwavering drive and positivity.
Congratulations, Makenzie, on this well-deserved recognition!
