Evan Monk helped his team win a bronze medal in the Sledge Hockey Regional Para Olympic Games in April. Evan scored in the second period to tie the game 1-1. Then 5 minutes into the third period one of his teammates took a shot and got a tip-in taking the score to 2-1. Evan's team held the competition off until the end, even when the other team pulled their goalie and set an all out attack.
The team now holds the bronze medal for Ontario and will be competing in the National games in December. Unfortunately, Evan is having back surgery in June and will be off for a year. Evan is 21-years-old. His family is extremely proud of him.
