This fall has seen a renewed excitement across campus, not the least of which was due to the return to a full slate of competitive athletics programs at Trinity College School. Achievement, dedication and leadership in the autumn term of co-curricular sports were celebrated on Friday, November 18th in the Dick and Jane LeVan Theatre.
A testament to the enthusiastic commitment of students to their athletics involvements this past term, six students received Distinction awards, which mark a superior level of skill as well as a student who serves as a leading ambassador for TCS. This included Bigside field hockey’s Jasmine de Pencier and Bigside boys soccer player William Raenden, as well as four of our Senior boys cross-country runners – fresh off their provincial bronze medals – Liam Gibson, Aidan Small, Liam Small and Andrew Richards.
Twenty-four students were honoured with Bigside ties, recognizing the completion of their third season on a Bigside team during their career at TCS. They are: Jasmine Chen, Alex Chin, TianTian Dong, Bruce Duanmu, Eleanor Harvey, Wesley Hoo, Ryan Horton, Dagna Jezioro, Tae-Kyeong Kim, Sophia Masur, Ashwin Raina, Abeigh Reason, Mika Romao Vandepol, Alex Savard, Izzy Torzsas, Marie-Anne Urrutia, Eliza Wadds, Eason Yang, William Horsbrugh-Porter, Emerson Mendum, Val Northey, Samuel Smolkin, Emilie Vahramian and Marc-Olivier Robert.
