My favorite StFX sporting moment to date is…?
AUS championships in my first year. Both our women and men's 4x400m ran the most intense races I've ever seen and they both completed a huge comeback in the final stretch to take gold over our Dalhousie rivals. They were crazy back to back races. I, along with the majority of the team, came out of them with absolutely no voice left.
