Athlete of the Month

Name: Brooke Zeran

Age: 11
School: St. George’s Catholic
School (Long Sault)
Plays in the Cornwall Girls
Hockey Association

This is Brooke’s first year playing as a goalie in the CGHA. She just

finished the 2013-2014 season guarding the net for the Cornwall Atom
Red Typhoons. She is now focussing on stopping shots as one of the
goalies on the Atom DS team. Brooke enjoys the challenge of stopping
the puck from going in the net, and the excitement of making a great
save. Since she started out as a player in hockey, she sometimes misses
the interaction with her team mates on the bench, and the thrill of
possibly scoring a goal. Brooke also enjoys swimming, arts & crafts,
socializing with her friends and playing with her brother and sister.
