Athlete of the Month
As we wrap up an incredible first month of fall athletics, we are proud to recognize two student-athletes who truly exemplify what it means to grow, adapt, and lead. Our September Athletes of the Month are Luke Gruszewski and Lila House.
Having been a key part of our football program for the past four years, Luke’s journey has been defined by continuous growth. Over the last month, Luke has taken a massive step forward in his role, evolving from a dependable player into a vocal, responsible leader and team captain. Playing as both a linebacker and H-Back, Luke sets the tone with his relentless work ethic and team-first attitude.
Lila’s growth this month in field hockey has been nothing short of extraordinary. Stepping into the goalie net for the very first time less than two weeks ago, she took on a high-pressure role as a rookie and executed it with incredible composure. Across two tournaments, Lila made hundreds of saves and limited the reigning OFSAA silver medalists to just two goals in two games. Beyond her rapid skill development, Lila has stepped up as a vocal leader on the field, constantly directing play and encouraging her teammates.
Congratulations to two athletes not just for their performance on the scoreboard, but for their exceptional personal and athletic development they have demonstrated on and off the field.
Tennis
Senior Tennis practice at Linlake park today, weather permitting. If it rains, we will meet Monday and Tuesday next week before SOSSA on Wednesday.
