In this episode of The Huddle, we spotlight McMaster athletes competing at the highest levels of sport.

First, we speak with Lily Carbray, a fourth-year kinesiology student and member of McMaster’s figure skating team, following their third-place finish at the OUA Championships. She reflects on the season, the competition, and what it meant to reach the podium.

Then, we sit down with Mark Zanette, a former McMaster Marauders baseball player who has since made the leap to international competition as a member of Canada’s four-man bobsleigh team at the Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics. He shares his journey from varsity athletics to the Olympic stage and what it takes to compete at the highest level.

From OUA success to the Olympic stage, this episode highlights the diverse paths McMaster athletes take in sport.
