The North Star Wolves football team got to the WECSSAA Tier 2 championship game this past season and players who helped make that happen were honoured last Saturday.

The football team’s annual awards banquet was held at Shooter’s where a number of awards were presented.

“Today is about you guys and the accomplishments we achieved,” Wolves head coach Joel Charron. “What we did over this past season, I have never seen in my 14 years of coaching.”

Charron cited the 2025 team’s ability to put up points and keep opponents from doing the same. The Wolves didn’t allow a point during their first six games.

“This senior group is a very special group for me,” said Charron.

Charron recalled the school almost not having a football program three years ago and the students rallying and recruiting players for a team. That group is largely this year’s group of seniors.

“We got routinely pummeled that year,” Charron said. “I told them, ‘by the time you’re in Grade 12, you are going to be giving that.”

There were coaches and players upset with how they lost and how many points the Wolves scored against them, but Charron said “stop us from scoring points. It’s the name of the game.”

The program built itself back up to where they made it to the Tier championship game back-to-back years, including this past season.

“I am proud of every single one of you guys,” he said. “This is the tip of the iceberg for all of you guys.”

Prior to the team awards, captains Ashton Fevreau, Alex Greason, Jeremy Grimaldi, Brody Halliday, Steven Craner, Noah Abreu and Ryan Reid were recognized. Abreu, Grimaldi, Greason, Halliday, Craner and Graham Evans were part of the WECSSAA all-star team with Fevreau the league’s offensive MVP.

“It’s been fun watching Ashton do his thing,” he said. “No team could stop him.”

Charron added he was adamant on getting North Star players on the WECSSAA all-star team.
