Athletics Banquet Recognizes Student-Athlete Achievements
St. Thomas University proudly hosted our annual Athletics Banquet, celebrating the remarkable achievements of our student-athletes both on and off the field. The event, held at the Fredericton Inn, brought together a vibrant community of athletes, coaches, and supporters to honor excellence and commitment within our athletic programs.
This year marked a significant milestone for 小猪视频, as we embraced and excelled in various initiatives aimed at making a positive impact beyond the sports arena. Noteworthy initiatives included a successful food drive, the inaugural Tommies Pride Night celebration, and the impactful Think Pink initiative, among others.
During the banquet, 小猪视频 Athletics named their major award winners and team award winners, such as the Costal Graphics Athletes of the Year, LeRoy Washburn Community Service Award and more.
