Jon Atherton is, by definition,  a true Hybrid back (H Back). Having a single player that has a starting position,  but also has the ability to be competitive in a number of other positions is a luxury all coaches should have. Jon has played (competitively) TE, FB, CENTER, and WR, without hesitation. Always brain storming new concepts and willing to help in anyway he can, Jon deserves this recognition. His commitment and dedication to the Saint John Wanderers is nearly unchallenged.

Bobby Mac has been a Gladiator since 2006 and took over as team President in 2013. He epitomizes what it be a football player. Whether it was playing in the 2005 high school championship  game with a cracked fibula and having two interceptions OR the playing through a badly sprained ankle in the 2012 AFL championship game and making the game saving interception with 30 seconds to go; he has always found a way to contribute above and beyond what is expected. In 2014 the Gladiators went through four quarterbacks before they finally handed the ball to Bobby Mac. Once again, when the team needed him he stepped up and did what was best for the team without any regard for himself.

Nick McEachern has been with the Moncton Mustangs the last 3 seasons. He has played fullback for us this season and has done a tremendous job of blocking for our tailbacks and QB even though he is not the biggest player on the team. Nick is also an excellent special teams player. He has always been at practice throughout his 3 seasons even when he is injured and cannot play. He is a student of the game and  helps the coaches out whenever he notices something we can improve on or change up. He may not always get recognized for the plays he makes but he is always ready to make or take a hit for the team.
