UPEI Field Hockey announces Sarah Sear to join Panthers this fall

University of Prince Edward Island Field Hockey coach Sheila Bell is excited to announce Sarah Sear from Charlottetown will join the Panthers this fall.

The Colonel Gray field hockey graduate is a quick forward with an ability to score. Sear participated at the U-18 Nationals in Vancouver and U-16’s in Brampton in 2013, U-18 Nationals in Calgary in 2014, and the U-18 Nationals held earlier this month, August 5–8, in Surrey, BC. Sear was selected to the Junior Development Target in 2013 and has attended a number of Field Hockey Canada identification camps for junior players.

Sear was a member of Colonel Gray High School’s provincial-winning cross country and track and field teams during all three of her years of high school while also playing provincial hockey and soccer. At the Colonel Gray graduation, Sear received the Colin F. Macdonald Scholarship for a first-year UPEI Panther Field Hockey student-athlete.

Coach Bell is looking forward to Sarah making an impact on the UPEI forward line.

Sear has been accepted into the Bachelor of Science program at UPEI.
