Lowry, a 2016 Olympic gold medallist in U.S. men's basketball, was one of seven "outstanding individuals" to receive honorary degrees from the university at a convocation held virtually for the Class of 2021 in Wolfville, N.S. He is now a Doctor of Humanities. In a news release, Acadia University said of Lowry: "He rallied the nation when he led Canada's only NBA franchise to an historic NBA Championship victory in 2019.  "Lowry and his wife, Ayahna Cornish-Lowry, are committed to improving the lives of the disadvantaged in Toronto and Philadelphia to help them experience a better quality of life. Together, they set up the Lowry Love Foundation, a charity that gives back to community." Dr. Peter Ricketts, Acadia's president and vice-chancellor, said honorary degrees celebrate leadership in all of its forms. "Acadia's honorary degree recipients are excellent role models for our graduates. Each one is a distinguished individual who has made a significant impact in their community," Ricketts said in the release. "By recognizing their outstanding achievements with honorary degrees, we acknowledge them for their many contributions to society. Like them, we know our graduates will take their place in the world and make a difference." Sherri Turner, University communications director for the president's office at Acadia University, said Lowry was chosen because he has made a difference to society. "Honorary doctorates are meant to recognize those who have achieved a level of excellence above and beyond any of their peers in their chosen profession. In addition to what they have also given back to their communities," she said in an email on Sunday "Kyle has done that against challenging odds, and we see him as an inspiring role model to our graduating class." The other honorary degree recipients on Sunday were former Canadian prime minister Paul Martin; retired senator Hon. Murray Sinclair; Dr. Robert Strang, Nova Scotia's chief medical officer of health; Dr. Gaynor Watson-Creed, the province's deputy chief medical officer of health; Nancy McCain, patron of the arts and education and chair of Acadia's Campaign for Acadia; and Rev. Dr. Malcolm Card, a minister and missionary. About 2,800 people watched the one-hour ceremony on Acadia's convocation website. Acadia, founded in 1838, has a graduating class of about 850 out of a student population of 3,500.

Late-season acquisition returns to Swamp Rabbits BY: Jordan Kuhns, Greenville Swamp Rabbits GREENVILLE, S.C. — Forward Zach Franko returns to the fold in 2019–20, as he has agreed to terms and has signed a Standard Player Contract. The late-season acquisition adds on to the existing returning core for next season. Franko was acquired from the Idaho Steelheads along with defenseman Clint Lewis in exchange for the forward, Will Merchant on March 5, 2019. He entered the ECHL after a strong season with the University of Manitoba, alongside top scorer and current teammate Kamerin Nault. While it was a bit of a slow start for Franko offensively in Idaho, his numbers blossomed in Greenville under head coach Kevin Kerr. He notched 8 points in 12 games, including points in four of his last five games to end the season. His best performance came on Fan Appreciation Night, where he scored two goals and an assist vs. Orlando on March 29. Franko spent four years in the Canadian college circuit between the University of Manitoba and Acadia University, and prior to that, played for the Kootenay Ice and the Kelowna Rockets of the Western Hockey League. His first season at Acadia saw him garner All-Rookie Team honors with a 30-point season. The 26-year-old Winnipegger brings 331 games of junior hockey experience and 105 games of Canadian college hockey experience to the table after taking the slow and steady route to the pro ranks. The following players are now under contract for the 2019–20 season: F - Michael Pelech (29) F - Johno May (25) F - Travis Howe (25) F - Kamerin Nault (23) F - Mason Baptista (29) F - Roman Ammirato (26) F - Daniel Perez (25) F - Nathan Perkovich (33) F - Zach Franko (26) D - J.C.
