⭐️PLAYER SPOTLIGHT⭐️: Kevin Bender & Kevin Winschel

It must be a Kevin kind of day as our player spotlights today go to none other than the two Kevins on the team. Although they share the same name, they both make massively different impacts on the pitch.

Bender, the man with a hidden engine, as he always finds a way to get a line break. Often times presenting an insane amount of pace at points, while also packing quite the punch when he carries.The speedy yet powerful hook is not one to underestimate on the pitch

Kev^2 on the other hand is all about speed. He joined the Lions this last year and made a huge impact during the 7s season with his insane speed and going into the XV’s season as a starting winger. A defensive monster on the edge as it is a challenge to try and get past him.

08/15/2026

⭐️PLAYER SPOTLIGHT⭐️: Eli Housenbold & Timeo Coletta

Introducing your Lions president & vice president Eli Housebold and Timeo Coletta. These two will be guiding the team throughout the season as we move from sevens in the fall to XV’s in the Spring.

Eli assists in the forward pack primarily playing lock while sometimes going on the flank. With his hard carries and tackles, he’s an important part of the Lions forward pack.

Timeo assists in the Lions backfield whether it’d be as a winger or as a fullback. His pace and speed makes him a threat in open space and it’ll be hard to even catch the man.

We’re excited to see what these two show us during the fall sevens season and the XV’s season in the spring. As they’ll be the ones leading the charge and helping organize everything

PLAYER SPOTLIGHT: ⭐️Eddie McKinnie⭐️

One of the newest players to the Lions, Eddie joined the team and is constantly looking to improve no matter what. It has been proven match after match as he progressed throughout his first season as a Lion. He plays his heart out whenever he steps onto the pitch.

With the upcoming sevens season on the horizon, we can’t wait to see what Eddie brings to the table with his powerful carries and speed on the pitch.
