Trent Athletics Announces April Village Inn Student-Athletes of the Month

Trent Athletics is proud to announce the recipients of the Village Inn Student-Athlete of the Month award for April 2026.

This award recognizes the outstanding athletic performances of our student-athletes. As the academic year comes to a close, this final recognition highlights individuals who demonstrated exceptional performance, leadership, and consistency throughout their seasons.

The female Student-Athlete of the Month is Natalie Fournier (Georgetown, Ontario) from the women's varsity volleyball and lacrosse teams.

A dominant dual-sport athlete, Natalie made a significant impact across two varsity programs this season. On the volleyball court, she recorded 126 kills, 95 digs, 17 service aces, and 151 points, finishing her career as the program's all-time leader in both kills (542) and points (646).

On the lacrosse field, Natalie continued to excel as a midfielder, helping lead the Excalibur to an OUA women's lacrosse championship. She recorded 31 goals and 9 assists for 40 points in just 11 games, averaging 3.64 points per game, and earned OUA All-Star honours.

Natalie is a graduating student in the Bachelor of Science Honours Psychology program.

The male Student-Athlete of the Month is John Moncada (Scarborough, Ontario) from the men's varsity soccer team.

In his first season with the Excalibur, John delivered one of the most impressive rookie campaigns in program history. The Business Administration student led both the OUA and U SPORTS in goals with 14 and tied for the national lead in points with 15.

His performance earned him OUA East MVP and U SPORTS First Team All-Canadian honours, while his 14 goals set a new single-season program record for Trent men's soccer.

John is a first-year student in the Business Administration program.
