18-year-old Defenseman
Truro, NS
5’11”, 175 lbs.
Bearcat-of-the-Week honours went to defenceman, Tanner Greatorex. He and Jacob Christie completed their rookie year under solid mentorship, and this year each has a leadership role with significantly increased responsibility. The response has been good as each is now a reliable rearguard.
Greatorex came up through the Truro and Area Minor Program to the Major Bantam level spending two seasons with the Truro club. Next up were a pair of years with the Weeks Midgets. Late in the first year he participated in the Canada Games with Team Nova Scotia. The year after he served as team Captain with the Weeks club. The 2019 draft pick by the Bearcats and Cape Breton Screaming Eagles made a quick adjustment to the junior level and has been a go-to player getting the opportunity to play in all situations while growing with each opportunity.
