Sara wasted little time establishing herself as one of the NCAA’s brightest young stars. A forward from La Salle, Manitoba, she recorded 52 points in her freshman season at Clarkson University, earning ECAC Player of the Year, Forward of the Year, and Rookie of the Year honours. She also shared the 2026 Julie Chu National Rookie of the Year Award and became the first Clarkson player to score in 10 consecutive games in a single season. A gold and bronze medallist with Canada’s U18 national team, Sara earned her first selection to Canada’s senior national team for the 2026 IIHF Women’s World Championship. Raised on a farm, Sara remains close to her family and enjoys spending time with her dog, Lennie, and three cats, Mini, Flaxy, and Whiskers. A psychology student with aspirations of becoming a coach, she enjoys cooking, exploring coffee shops, and staying active through yoga and pickleball. At Clarkson, she also has the opportunity to play alongside her twin sister and best friend, Kate.
