The Gravenhurst High School athletes of the month for May are Cassie Lalonde, Cam Bird and Om Patel.
Cassie was a first-year player on the girls’ soccer team this year, and she stepped up right away! She quickly became one of the team’s key defenders and played nearly every minute of the entire season. Cassie was eager to improve and always listened to, and acted on, any advice she was given. She could be counted on to play her position from the opening kickoff to the final whistle. Congrats Cassie and we’re looking forward to having you back on the team next year!
The dynamic duo of Cam Bird and Om Patel took on the challenge of playing senior doubles badminton in their grade nine year. They swept the MPS tournament and the GBSSA championship thanks to their experience and skill in the sport. When they qualified for OFSAA, they increased the level of play at practices and opened their strategy to include some solid coaching from a local badminton expert. Throughout their games at OFSAA in Port Hope, they pushed their skills and collaboration to stay in the B division and progress deep into the bracket, with a lot of wins along the way. Congratulations to Om & Cam on a strong season and on being May’s Athletes of the Month!
