Simon Fraser University Athletics

BURNABY, B.C. – Simon Fraser University is proud to welcome two-time wrestling Olympian and world silver medalist Danielle Lapage, and two-time CIS Player of the Year Jessica Kaczowka, who led women's basketball to a magical undefeated championship season in 2002, into its Athletic Hall of Fame. Lapage and Kaczowka will be joined by Chris Beaton, who recruited and coached an incredible 85 players who went on to be drafted into the CFL during his 23 years as head coach, and 1983 men's soccer, who won the NAIA championship for the second year in a row with a flawless run through the playoffs capped by a 1-0 victory over Midwestern State (Texas) in the final.

SFU student-athletes are used to spending time in classrooms and reading, but the Red Leafs recently took time away from their own studies to read and share stories with students at Cameron Elementary School and Stoney Creek as BC celebrated Family Literacy Week.

SFU Football will be hosting its annual Lift-a-Thon from February 12th to 18th. This initiative helps create focus and motivation for our players during the off-season. But is also an opportunity for us to raise critical funds to support our program—funds that will provide additional support for athletes to help improve their experience at SFU.
