Thunder Bay defensive back newest recruit to join AUS team’s 2015 class.
Saint Maryβs Huskies have announced that Josh Lamke has committed to their football program.
The 6β0, 175 pound defensive back from Thunder Bay, Ontario will join the team for the 2015 AUS season.
βWe are extremely happy to add a student athlete like Josh to the SMU football family,β commented Huskies Head Coach Perry Marchese.
Recently, Lamke completed a stint with the Holland College Hurricanes of the Atlantic Football League (AFL). In 2014, the Hurricanes won the Moosehead Cup (AFL Championship).
Previous to the Hurricanes, the defensive back played for Superior Griffons North Western Ontario Secondary Schools Athletic Association (NWOSSAA).
For his part, Lamke felt had a special feeling when he took in his official visit to the Halifax, Nova Scotia campus.
βI chose Saint Maryβs university based on the reputation of the school,β elaborated the Ontario defensive back.Β βThe way the coaching staff cares about you and the way the team treated me while I was on my visit.β
βCoach Perry and the coaching staff treats you like a person rather than just a piece of meat that plays for them and thatβs something I havenβt had in a long time. They care about you on a personal level and want you to be a student first and thatβs really helped me make up my mind on my commitment. Iβm excited and thankful for my opportunity to continue my education and playing the sport Iβm so passionate about.β
