I am writing to nominate Shannon Aube for the Hobey Baker Award in recognition of her outstanding contributions, leadership, and dedication to the sport of ice hockey. Shannon’s achievements both on and off the ice exemplify the values that this award seeks to honor.

Shannon has not only broken the record for the most goals scored in program history, with an impressive 52 goals as of January 30, but she has also demonstrated exceptional leadership as the team captain over the past two years. Her ability to inspire and lead her teammates has contributed significantly to the team’s success during her tenure.

One of Shannon’s distinguishing qualities is her physical and aggressive style of play, which is a rarity in our league. Her determination, grit, and commitment to excellence set her apart from her peers. Despite facing challenges, Shannon consistently displays coachability, strength of character, integrity, and a strong sense of teamwork.

Shannon’s passion for hockey is evident in her long-standing involvement with the Northern Lights. She has been an integral part of the team since her early years, showcasing not only her skills on the ice but also her commitment to community building and fostering a positive sportsmanship culture.

In summary, Shannon Aube embodies the spirit of the Hobey Baker Award. Her achievements, leadership, and love for the game make her a deserving candidate for this prestigious recognition. I am confident that Shannon’s impact on and off the ice aligns perfectly with the values celebrated by this award.
