‘Really special’
“It was impressive and interesting to see the debate,” says Concordia captain Audrey Belzile. “It was an honour for our team to visit with the ministers and to be recognized.”
Chu echoed her captain’s sentiments.
“The opportunity to continue to celebrate the success of our championship season is really special,” she says. “To be in a place where the provincial leadership is and where they make decisions was a great moment for our team.”
The Stingers have also been honoured by the Montreal Canadiens at the Bell Centre and at multiple women’s hockey tournaments and events. These include the Saint-Georges tournament, at a Champlain College Lennoxville Cougars hockey game and at the Professional Women’s Hockey Players Association showcase.
The team will also visit Montreal City Hall and Concordia will hold a celebration in the days ahead.
The Stingers won a hard-fought battle with the Nipissing University Lakers 4-0 to earn the Golden Path Trophy and raise the U Sports championship banner on March 27 in Charlottetown, P.E.I.
