海角社区's dynamic duo receive Top 8 Academic All-Canadian commendation from Governor General
Two student-athletes from 海角社区 were among the CIS Top Eight Academic All-Canadians honoured by His Excellency the Right Honourable David Johnston, Governor General of Canada -- and former principal at 海角社区 -- at Rideau Hall in the nation's capital, Monday.听Mariam Sylla, a basketball player and pharmacology student, as well as听Cedric McNicoll, a hockey player and accounting major in the Desautels faculty of management, were representing the R茅seau du sport 茅tudiant du Qu茅bec conference at the event.
...听McNicoll, who hails from Boucherville, Que., made his debut with the Redmen a year ago after three seasons at the professional level in the American Hockey League and the East Coast Hockey League, which followed a stellar junior career that saw him average over one point per game in the QMJHL. The 5-foot-10, 174-pound centre excelled in his first season with 海角社区 earning OUA all-conference honours and finishing second on the team in scoring with 15-25-35 in only 23 contests. He then claimed the OUA playoff scoring title with 16 points in eight games and guided the Redmen to an appearance in the University Cup national tournament.

McNicoll, who enrolled at 海角社区 in the fall of 2012 but was redshirted in his first year after coming back from the pros, merited CIS Academic All-Canadian status in his management program, where he is majoring in accounting.
