DāANTAL SAMPSON:
There were four main factors as to why the 5ā10, 210 pound linebacker from Mississauga, Ontario decided on the Golden Gaels.
āI chose Queenās because they give me the total package – world-class academics, great football, great coaches and great people,ā explained Sampson of his decision.Ā āWhen I got to meet the coaches they seemed like they were truly motivated to bring out the best in all of their athletes on and off the field.ā
āThe family feel of the program and high quality facilities ultimately lead to me making the decision to spend my university career at Queenās.ā
Sampson joins the Golden Gaels after a successful career with Lorne Park Spartans of the Region of Peel Secondary School Athletic Association (ROPSSAA). This past season, the linebacker led the Spartans to both the OFSAA Bowl and ROPSSAA Championship titles.

āDāAntal is a classic āin the box linebackerā who can fill on the inside run and he flows well to the perimeter,ā commented Golden Gaels Head Coach Pat Sheahan.Ā āHe is smart, very fast and agile.ā
āHe is a great hitter and a leader. He is also a real student of the game. This was a year when we needed to secure several great young linebackers to help rebuild our defense and Ā DāAntal will be a big part our future.ā
NICHOLAS FRASER-GREENE:
The 5ā10, 170 pound defensive back recently completed his high school career with Angels of the Region of Peel Secondary School Athletic Association (ROPSSAA). Moreover, he has suited up for the Mississauga Warriors of the Ontario Varsity Football League (OVFL)
By virtue of his commitment to the Golden Gaels, he will be reunited with Angelsā teammate and CFC TOP 100 pivot Nate Hobbs.
āNick is a very good athlete with a variety of desirable skills,ā said Sheahan. Ā āHe is a solid performer on either side of the LOS.ā
āHe resembles Queenās All-Canadian corner back TJ Chase in stature. Ā Ā He plays very tough and physical. He is also a very capable receiver and will be joining his high school quarterback Nate Hobbs at training camp this year at Queenās. He is a great acquisition for our program.ā
