Lauren Cardwell Earns Silver With Toronto
Bermudian Lauren Cardwell and her University of Toronto Varsity Blues teammates earned national silver after finishing runners-up at the 2026 Field Hockey Canada U SPORTS Championship in Waterloo, Ontario.
Toronto fell 2–1 to the UBC Thunderbirds in the final, securing the programme’s first national medal since winning silver in 2023.
UBC captain Kenzie Girgis opened the scoring from a penalty corner in the 10th minute, giving the Thunderbirds a lead they maintained through halftime.
Toronto pressed for an equaliser after the break, but Amy Stelling doubled UBC’s advantage with fewer than 10 minutes remaining.
Maggie Mullins pulled a goal back from a late penalty corner, but Toronto were unable to find an equaliser before the final whistle.
The silver was Toronto’s 27th national medal since 1975, bringing the programme’s tally to 11 gold, eight silver and eight bronze medals.
