COWBOYS DUO SET TO JOIN REBELS
Congratulations to two graduating Cowboys seniors who will take their talents to the post-secondary level in the fall. Linebacker, Tyler Aarts, and running back, Kaleb Jardine, will suit up, next year, for the Westshore Rebels, in Victoria. Both players had strong spring camps earning their invitation to the team. The Rebels had a great season, last year, winning the B.C. Championship and finishing second in the National Championship game. Tyler and Kaleb were also receiving some attention from U.S schools. Their goal is to suit up at the university level in a year or two. Both players have had outstanding high school careers and have been working hard to prepare for their post-secondary careers. These are two outstanding athletes who have exemplary attitudes and character. Best of luck to this talented pair.
