Isaac Labelle played 77 games for the Waywayseecappo Wolverines and he quickly became the goalie you expect big saves from. Now he's set to make big saves for a new team.

After aging out of junior hockey at the end of this past season, Labelle has now committed to play for the Trinity Western Spartans men's hockey team. 

Playing in the British Columbia Intercollegiate Hockey League, the Spartans went on to win the league last year. They went 18-6 in the regular season and they went a perfect 4-0 in the playoffs to clinch the league title.

"It's pretty exciting for me to commit to playing for the Spartans," said Labelle. "I went to visit them back in April and I really liked what I saw. I had a lot of great options, but my family and I felt it would be best to go to Trinity Western."

"They have a good academic program and that's exciting," added Labelle. 

Labelle will play just one season with the Spartans in the BCIHL. After that, Isaac and the team will embark on a new journey. The program has recently been accepted into USports. 

They will join the Saskatchewan Huskies, Alberta Golden Bears, Calgary Dinos, UBC Thunderbirds, Mount Royal Cougars, Lethbridge Pronghorns, Manitoba Bisons, and Regina Cougars to create a nine-team league.

"That was definitely really neat to find out. Playing against Saskatchewan will be awesome because it's my hometown," commented Labelle. "It's going to be a fun ride for sure."

When it came to leading the Wolverines this past season, that's exactly what Labelle did. He helped Waywayseecappo make a return to the playoffs with some great numbers. He played in 49 of the team's 60 regular season games and he racked up 24 wins. That was paired with a .918 save percentage and a 2.55 goals against average. He also earned three shutouts.

"Yeah, it was definitely a good year. We definitely had some success," said Labelle. "We were all really close. We didn't get the finish we wanted, but just getting there was a pretty big accomplishment."

When it comes to Waywayseecappo's future, Labelle had this to say.

"I think they're going to do great things in the future, without a doubt," he added.

Labelle will join the Spartans for their final BCIHL season in August. After a championship season, Labelle is hoping to help the team win another title before they embark on their USports journey

"I'm definitely hoping to help the program win games," said Labelle. "I'm excited about the opportunity."
