U18C Bryce Delikatny Award for Sportsperson of the Year
Phil Lacoursiere Award for 3rd Year U18 Players who attended the annual scholarship tournament. Phil was the oldest of three brothers, all of whom grew up in Squamish and played hockey with Squamish Minor Hockey Association. Phil was one of the first SMHA players to win a scholarship through the U18 tournament and was set to attend university back east in the fall after the completion of his final year of hockey in the spring.
