Football
Etobicoke Collegiate Institute
Summary
Samuel Conteh’s nomination letter, written on his behalf by a member of ECI’s staff, is so much more than what he has accomplished on the field as a member of the Rams football team. It is about the man he has become, the leadership roles he has embraced, and the future that he is blazing for himself. Whether it is on the football field or among the groups that he has assisted with at school, he has the ability to unite everyone together for the cause at hand and make things brighter for all. He is now following his dream as a member of the University of Toronto Blues football team and creating a life he never knew was possible. He certainly had people cheering for him when he wore ECI’s green and gold, and he is proud to say this support is still alive and well.
