The New Brunswick Interscholastic Athletic Association is pleased to offer our Excellence Awards again this season, after having to cancel the event the past two years due to the pandemic.  Unfortunately, we have made the decision that the afternoon banquet will not be held this month and awards will be delivered to the recipients.

Twenty-two student athletes (listed below) from the NBIAA’s four conferences received the Raymond Légère Excellence Award. These students have shown outstanding qualities throughout the school year while participating in NBIAA sports.
