Nathan Cayouette STFX X-Men Defensive Back | Ep #26
On this episode I’m joined by a former teammate of mine Nathan Cayouette. Nathan is currently a student athlete at the University of St Francis Xavier in Antingonish, Nova Scotia. Nathan and I played one season together back in 2019 with the Vancouver Island Raiders in the CJFL.
We start by discussing Nathan growing up in Strathmore, Alberta, his family life, what other sports he grew up playing besides football(1:00-15:00) then we talk about his decision to leave home for Nanaimo, BC as a 17 year old, just weeks after losing his grandfather. Nathan would go on to contribute in a big way his rookie season and we relive some of his favourite memories from the 2019 season with the VI Raiders(16:30-37:00). We also chat about his decision to leave junior football after just one season, he would eventually commit to STFX but the Covid 19 pandemic had other ideas delaying his plans one whole year. Nathan now in his 3rd year at STFX has found his home away from home(38:00-100:02). Although Nathan and his X-men teammates have had nothing but success on the field over the past 3 seasons something still wasn’t right with him inside. September 2022 he would speak out about his struggles with mental health. Now Nathan uses his voice to lend a helping hand with anyone fighting the same struggle he was just over a year ago(101:45-114:40).
