W.J. Mouat grad Jade Trolland has been named the 2023-24 Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference women’s wrestler of the year.
The RMAC made the announcement on Wednesday (March 20) alongside its other major awards and all-conference rosters.
The awards are nominated and voted on by the league’s five head coaches.
Trolland, who competes for the SFU Red Leafs, closed the year with a sixth-place finish at the National Collegiate Women’s Wrestling Championships (NCWWC). She finished the 2023-24 campaign with a 28-4 record and helped SFU win the RMAC regular season crown.
Trolland was also named a first team all-conference selection after winning gold in the 136-pound weight class at the RMAC Women’s Wrestling Championships in February. Pitt Meadows product and SFU wrestler Marquesis Haintz was also named to the RMAC women’s first team all-conference.
