Captain Marcus Kearsey Earns UPEI’s Scholastic Player of the Year Honours

Charlottetown Islanders captain Marcus Kearsey has been named Scholastic Player of the Year, recognizing his outstanding achievements both on the ice and in the classroom.

“This is a well-deserved recognition for Marcus who has served as a role model not only in the classroom, but also in his community and on the ice as ‘Captain’ for his team,” said Islanders’ Education Coordinator, Bruce Cluney.

Kearsey’s commitment to excellence extends to his academic work, where his focus, discipline, and strong work ethic have earned him honours recognition at both the secondary and post-secondary levels.

“Marcus approaches his academics the same way he prepares for his games. He is focused, hardworking and displays self-discipline in his preparation for his course evaluations,” added Cluney.

A leader in every sense, Kearsey continues to set the standard for what it means to be a student-athlete.
