The team was comprised of twelve students and was captained by Grade 5 student Viviana Anderson Romero. Viviana demonstrated her leadership, communication, and organizational skills throughout the tournament and will continue to mentor the 80+ female students that comprise the Girls Basketball Program at LaSalle Elementary Senior!

Grade 4 Basketball Captain Isabella Dunn was the only cycle two student on the gold medal roster. Isabella is a leader in the gymnasium and in the classroom and will lead the team when basketball returns as a sport in Jeux de Montréal at the 49th edition of the Jeux de Montréal in 2026.

“This experience was one for the books and I cannot wait to experience it again with my girls,” said Ms. Dunn. “We couldn’t have done it without all the hard work, dedication and support of Coach!”

The gold medal team was coached by Physical Education teacher Mr. Michael Putré and Integration Aide Tyson Leclair. In addition, Destyny (2019 Female Athlete of the Year) assisted with coaching duties.

“We were able to create multiple turnovers with our defensive intensity which led to more offensive opportunities,” said Mr. Leclair when asked about their success, “this ultimately led us to victory in both of our games. We as a coaching staff are very proud, and the sky is the limit for these young ladies.”
