Cole Oswald is a grade 10 student at Greenall High School and is from Balgonie. He was a member and team captain for the 2022-2023 Prairie Storm U18 A Thunder and also a Team Member for the 2022-2023 Prairie Storm U18 Provincial team.

In his spare time, Cole officiates many levels of Prairie Storm hockey, as well as Balgonie Elementary School basketball and volleyball, and volunteers with unified basketball at Greenall.  Through these experiences, he has been able to further develop and demonstrate leadership and has also learned the importance of community involvement, academics, and volunteerism.  Cole enjoys being a multisport athlete and plays volleyball, basketball, and track field at Greenall School.
