He says the best thing about being a varsity athlete at TRU is the environment: “Even when we are working hard we are having fun,” he says. Jason likes the “Toys 4 Kids” event because it feels good to be giving to those who usually don’t get toys for Christmas. His favorite visiting field is Trinity Western because of its natural grass. The three items Jason would take to a desert island would be a loudspeaker, a yacht and the boys so they could have a ‘solid’ beach day. Jason’s cousin Jordyn Huitema is the youngest player on Canada’s National women’s soccer team. Jason likes trap music and says Mos Def is his favorite artist. Nine is his favorite number and he enjoys hiking, hanging with the boys and dancing. “Step Brothers” is his favorite movie, with Will Farrell being his favorite actor.

Something most people don’t know about Scott is that he plays the guitar.

Scott’s musical tastes depend on his mood but his favorite artists are Drake and J Cole. If he were up at karaoke, Scott would be warbling “Shape of You “by Ed Sheeran.

Adam’s fondest sports moment was assisting on the winning goal in the last seconds of extra time in the 2014 BC “AAA” High School championships.

He says his greatest sports highlight came in 2009 when he helped the West Van Highlanders win the provincial title. Ryan says the greatest individual moment as a member of the WolfPack was winning the Dr. Roger Barnsley Student Athlete award last year. The best thing about being a member of the ‘Pack is to be able to play in front of his father and his son (Oliver). Ryan’s father Clark, a longtime coach and teacher in Williams Lake, is his biggest influence. Despite a heart attack, he is at every one of Ryan’s practices and games (home and away). His father played university soccer for UBC and his twin brother Sean for UVIC. What his teammates don’t know is that Ryan played against Sean when he was with UBC.

He spent this past summer playing alongside a number of his current TRU teammates with the Penticton Pinnacles of the PCSL Premier Men’s league along with working as a valet at Sparkling Hills Resort.

It’s very flexible with school which makes life easier as a student athlete. Over the past few years, the program seems more like one big family and it’s an awesome atmosphere to be a part of.” Finlay’s greatest moment as a member of the Pack was scoring his first Canada West goal against UVIC with his father in attendance (his late father had brain cancer at the time). Finlay’s favorite visiting field is Nonis at UBCO because he grew up practicing there and little did he know it would be an ‘away’ ground for when going to university. He adds: “It is always nice to go back and play on that field and the rivalry between us and UBCO always makes it a great match.”

Tony played rugby and football in grades 11 and 12 and wrestled in grade 10. If he could be a part of another varsity team it would be cross country.

Plus, it would help out with my soccer conditioning.” Tony’s older brother Marcus played for SFU (NCAA Div II). Something his teammates might not know about him is that he is very passionate about the outdoors and he loves animals and how big a ‘gamer’ he is. His biggest influences were his dad (growing up), along with Carl Valentine and the coaching staff at the North Shore PPP which helped accelerate his soccer development through high school. He also credits Mark Whaley ,his club manager who has played an enormous role in his adult soccer life. Tony enjoys the outdoors, gaming, cooking, reading, educating people and his dogs.

Cole says the best thing about being a WolfPack athlete is playing his favorite sport at a high level while furthering his education. Trinity Western is his favorite visiting park because of the grass field. His favorite community event is the Terry Fox Elementary school runs.

INSIDE THE WOLFPACK

REMEMBERING SEB GARDNERThe WolfPack men’s program lost one of their own this past spring. Former player and assistant coach Sebastian Gardner (Vernon, BC) succumbed to cancer. Gardner joined the ‘Pack as a player in 2007 and was a PACWEST all-star in 2012. He later joined the coaching staff. He was 28. A memorial scholarship has been established in his memory.

This year’s edition of the WolfPack spent a week in Oregon playing three exhibition matches and doing some team bonding. This included going on a 10 km run, visiting the Adidas national factory and watching a MLS Portland Timbers match (Photos by Justin Donaldson and Jon Shephard).

The WolfPack had two CIS Academic All Canadians in 2015-16: Keeper Claye Harsany (High River, AB) is in the Bachelor of Science program while forward Ryan Glanville (Williams Lake, BC) is in the Masters of Business program. Glanville was also a 2nd team Canada West all-star. He is the first ever TRU soccer player to achieve an all-star recognition since the program moved into CIS.

TRU WolfPack in action

The WolfPack are involved in a number of community endeavors during the season. This includes the “Raise a Reader” campaign for literacy programs in Kamloops, being involved in Terry Fox runs in local high schools and the ‘Toys 4 Kids’ campaign at Christmas time. As well, many Kamloops Youth Soccer Association mini teams are invited to their matches where the Pack have them join in the opening ceremonies and later, have an autograph session.
