Maria Vizirakis shines at OFSAA

Tecumseh Vista's Tournament Run Ends in Quarterfinals

Belleville — Tecumseh Vista carried Thursday's momentum straight into Friday, dismantling Aurora High School 7-1 before rolling over Bayside Secondary 8-0 to close pool play on a high note.


Against Aurora, Julia Upcott and Maria Vizirakis each scored twice to lead the charge against Aurora. The Vortex then put on a show against Bayside, with Vizirakis potting four goals and Stefana Ferraro adding three.


The run came to an end in the quarterfinals, however, as Denis Morris High School handed TVA a 6-1 defeat. Vizirakis finished the tournament with nine goals, one of the standout individual performances among all Windsor-Essex athletes at this year's OFSAA.



Holy Names Bows Out on Tiebreaker Despite Strong Finish

GRIMSBY — The Holy Names Knights closed out OFSAA AAA pool play in style, blanking St. Mary's College 6-0 to finish 2-1-1, but it wasn't enough to advance. The Knights tied Fr. Leo J. Austin CSS in the standings, with both teams posting identical 2-1-1 records. Each team had a goal differential of six goals but Fr. Leo earned the tiebreaker based max goals per game left the Knights with plus-4 and Fr. Leo at plus-5 as they moved on to face undefeated Pool A leader St. Martin CSS in the quarterfinals where they lost 2-0.


Lajeunesse Finishes 1-3 After Tough Friday

NORWOOD — After Wednesday's dominant 5-0 win over ESC Algonquin, Lajeunesse couldn't keep the momentum going, dropping both Friday games to finish the tournament 1-3. Julia Farhat, Shukuru Neema and Alexa Chauvin each found the net across the two matches for Les Royals.


L'Essor Closes Pool Play With 1-2-1 Record

MILTON — Gradi Kaleba provided the offensive spark for L'Essor Friday, scoring in the opening game against Kings Christian College, but Les Aigles couldn't sustain the momentum, finishing pool play at 1-2-1 and falling short of the playoff round.


Villanova's Tournament Ends in Quarterfinals After Strong Pool Play

KITCHENER — Villanova capped a strong pool play run Friday, doubling up St. Mary's College 2-0 and edging Resurrection CSS 4-2 to set up a quarterfinal date with Holy Trinity. The Wildcats fell 3-1 in the quarters to close out their tournament.

Isabelle Sakalo was the standout performer for Villanova all week, finishing with four goals across the tournament after opening with the lone goal in Thursday's loss to Havergal College.


The WECSSAA boys All Star game is Monday at the University of Windsor at 7pm. The girls are scheduled to play their All Star game at St. Clair College at 4pm.

aboutus

Powerplay Windsor was born during a trip to Italy in the summer of 2018. Walking through a charming pedestrian underpass sparked a memory—being in the tunnel at the University of Michigan early in my career. That moment brought to mind the upcoming Windsor Lancers football camp and the many fall sports that would go uncovered due to cuts in legacy media sports coverage.

Recognizing this gap, and with the support of my loving wife and family, I launched Powerplay Sports as a passion project.

Founded locally and operated locally, we blend traditional sports reporting with modern digital storytelling.

From high school athletics and post secondary programs to junior hockey and grassroots clubs, we shine the spotlight on the people who make our sports community vibrant.

Our video channel brings you highlights, interviews and behind the scenes access. We are courtside, rinkside and on the field capturing moments that matter. See you soon.

"We celebrate all of the athletes within Windsor-Essex and their achievements reflected on Powerplay Sports."

"Another great resource for local sports produced by a person that has been invested in local sports for decades."
