Sam Lyne ‘24 spent his spring break playing for a British Columbia Hockey League (BCHL) team in Cranbrook, British Columbia. The Prep team power forward was there for three weeks and had a great experience.
Sam is widely known at Northwood and beyond for his fitness account, where he posts fitness plans people can purchase and follow during hockey season and the off-season. He uses Instagram to share content and influence people to try his program.
During spring break, he spent a lot of his downtime working on that Instagram content, filming videos, and editing. He spent the rest of his free time going to the gym and playing basketball with the team. But most of his time was spent playing hockey.
He enjoyed the fast pace and skill level in the BCHL. “It was faster, more competitive, and much more skillful,” he said, “but a lot of fun.” Sam is going to play for Cranbrook Bucks next year before heading off to Colgate. He’s excited to be living out West and playing in a good league. Sam played in four games with the Bucks, tallying one goal and two assists for three points.
