When I won mvps and all stars at provincial and national levels of lacrosse, scoring 9 goals in 1 game in lacrosse, scoring the winning goal in overetime to defeat the national champions from St, Catherines Ont. We were the only team to beat them at nationals that year.

Additional Comments

Well for us natives, for me anyways we were a very small minority who played organised lacrosse and soccer, so fitting in, belonging and feeling welcome was a challenge on most days.
