GW Graham’s Athletic Director Athletic Director Jake Mouritzen announced the new head coach in a statement to FVN:
I am very excited and honored to announce our programs 4th senior varsity coach: Ryk Piche.
Coach brings years of football experience, a passion for the game, and a sense of caring for his student athletes that I know will assist us in taking one more step in solidifying our spot in Canadian high school football as one of the very best programs in the country. Please help me welcome head coach Piche to his new position.

“This was a difficult decision that I made, as I am well aware of the dedication, commitment, and passion that Luke has for G.W. Graham football,” Lawson said. “I want to thank Luke Acheson for all that he gave to G.W. Graham football and I wish him all the best for the future.”
