On March 20, The St. Catharines Standard (and affiliated papers) wrote about two up-and-coming athletes, basketball player Beth DeBoer from Niagara-on-the-Lake, and soccer player Hailey Gawel from Fort Erie. The piece includes commentary from NC coaches Mike Beccaria and Rob Lalama on the new recruits. DeBoer, who will be enrolling in the Police Foundations program, and Gawel, who will be enrolling in the Occupational Therapist Assistant and Physiotherapist Assistant program, discuss their motivations for choosing NC and the positive engagement they had with our coaches during the recruitment process.
The Standard: Hoops player, soccer standouts opt to play close to home
