Saints serving awards virtually

The St. Clair Athletics department is planning to announce their year-end varsity award winners on-line starting July 27th. "It's the best thing we have available" said college vice president Ron Seguin. "We didn't want to see those efforts go unnoticed". St. Clair is hoping to have photo opportunities and trophy presentations in the fall.


"It's nice", said Paul Boots when he found out he was nominated for the Gerald Serviss Coach of The Year award. He guided a strong cross country team led by Carter Free and Tyler Jones to the silver medal at provincials and nationals "Solid team. I owe it to them for putting me in this position".


David Gomez Jr. is nominated for male athlete of the year after leading the men's basketball team to a 14-6 record. "Good things come when you work hard, make zero excuses, and don't mind being different", said the Pontiac, Michigan native who was the team's leading scorer averaging 19.6 points per game.


Here's the complete rundown of who is nominated for the top awards and when the winners will be announced.

“After one of our most successful seasons ever we had really hoped to recognize all of our coaches, student-athletes and staff in person after postponing our original athletic awards banquet,” stated Director of Athletics and Recreation, Christina Gatto. “However, we felt we did not want to wait any longer to do so and therefore we have decided to honour all of our amazing winners on our social medial accounts instead.”

This past season the Saints earned 8 OCAA provincial medals and 2 CCAA national medals. Both the men’s and women’s indoor soccer teams could have easily added to that total as both teams had advanced to the final four at the OCAA Championships before the event was cancelled due to the COVID 19 pandemic midway through the event championship.

"We celebrate all of the athletes within Windsor-Essex and their achievements reflected on Powerplay Sports."

"Another great resource for local sports produced by a person that has been invested in local sports for decades."

This is why...

Powerplay Sports was born while on a trip to Italy in the summer of 2018. Walking through a charming pedestrian underpass reminded me of being in the tunnel at the University of Michigan in the early part of my career. That feeling led to thoughts of Windsor Lancers football camp opening in three weeks and all of the fall sports that weren't going to be covered because of cuts to local sports coverage by legacy media. 

With the support of a loving wife and family, I decided to create Powerplay Sports as a passion project.  

I've come across some great people who have helped capture the essence of our community throughout the years like Tony Techko, Tony Doucette, Scott Scantlebury, Dom Papa, Steve Bell, Will Hill, Jim Parker and Mary Caton to name a few. 

Please spread the word and follow along here or on social media so we can continue having the priviledge of highlighting our athletes, our community.
