Brooke Hilditch was one of the most gifted athletes to wear the red, black and gold colours. A two-sport star, who excelled both on the rugby pitch and on the wrestling mat, Brooke always put in maximum effort to set an example for her teammates. She was known as a gifted, low-maintenance player in the eyes of coaches. Brooke's 2003 season, which included an OUA rugby gold medal, the conference MVP and All-Canadian honours, individual and team silver medals in wrestling, as well as the U of G Varsity Honour Award, Female Athlete of the Year, and President's Trophy, will rank as one of the most memorable ever put together by any Gryphon. "Brooke was true student-athlete," said her rugby coach Dr. Jim Atkinson. "She could do both. Brooke was a bright woman, mentally tough and very principled."
