OFSAA Golf Championships
Please join us in celebrating some phenomenal athletic achievements from our E.L. Crossley Cyclone golfers at the OFSAA championships!
Girls Golf
Huge Congratulations to Grace S. for capturing the OFSAA Gold Medal in girls golf!
Grace put together an incredible two days on the course, starting off strong on Day 1 with a personal best round of 73 (one over par). She followed it up with an 85 on Day 2, battling tough conditions to tie for the lead at the end of regulation play. The tie forced a tense and thrilling playoff, which she ultimately won by a single stroke to secure the provincial championship title! Your coaches and the entire school community are very proud of your hard work, dedication, and amazing performance.
Boys Golf
Congratulations also goes out to Ben J., who put together a fantastic tournament against a very competitive field. Playing on a tough course, Ben shot solid, consistent rounds of 74 and 75 to finish 27th out of 120 players overall. This marks his 4th consecutive year qualifying for and competing at OFSAA—an incredible testament to his skill and consistency.
Congratulations to both athletes on your outstanding contributions to high school golf as an E.L. Crossley Cyclone!
Congratulations also to our Junior Boys Volleyball team on their success at the Brebeuf Tournament yesterday! The boys battled hard against some strong competition and earned a spot in the semifinals.
A special shoutout to Charlie P. for his powerful hits, Eli J. for his hustle, and Ashton W. and Mac C. for stepping up and playing positions they had never played before. Great teamwork and effort from everyone!
There will be no practice today. Congratulations, boys!
