Isabella Goveia continues to make her mark on the track, delivering a breakthrough performance this past weekend at the Can-Am Classic. The fourth-year distance runner finished third overall in the women’s 1000 meters, crossing the line in 2:46.93, a time that not only set a new school record but also served as an automatic qualifying standard for nationals. "That was very surreal," Goveia told Powerplay Sports. "I had no clue it was going to be that fast. It felt like I was

I. Forging A Way Out Alijah Metz is a man caught between two worlds. In one, the lights of the stadium are bright, the roar of the crowd is a promise, and his uniform, a Canadian university shield, is the hard-won armour of an athlete preparing for the OUA semi-finals. In this world, Metz is a commanding defensive lineman, a master in explosive movement, fuelled by a philosophy he carries into every practice: to be “one percent better every day.” He is living the dream he fir
