Each year for more than 30 years, the Hockomock comes together in May to honor two student athletes from each of the 12 Hock schools. Two graduating student athletes from each school are selected for excelling in both the classroom and on the playing field. It is really the award that best exemplifies and honors those who embrace the mission of educational athletics.
It is extremely difficult to select recipients given that so many Bulldogs prioritize the "student" part of being a student athlete. Canton's two award winners this year were Sierra Abbott and Matthew Lesser. Both Abbott and Lesser have earned amazingly high GPA's during their four years at CHS, while also contributing greatly to the many teams they have been a part of.
Sierra Abbott has been a huge contributor to both the Field Hockey and Lacrosse teams during her time here. She has been a leader and key contributor in both sports where she has served as a captain each season. She is heading south to attend University of Richmond in the fall.
Matt Lesser has been a quiet and powerful leader of both the Football and Baseball teams during his CHS career. Matt has been dedicated to his teams. He has served as a captain of the Bulldog Football team where he has led with expectional character and sportsmanship. He will be heading to the heights to attend Boston College in the fall.
The CHS Athletic Department proudly wishes both of these soon-to-be graduates, the best of luck in the next chapters of their lives.
